TY Hilton, WR, Indianapolis Colts

Week 14: Houston (4th least points allowed to opposing wide receivers)

Week 15: Minnesota (2nd)

Week 16: Oakland (15th)

T.Y. Hilton was last seen running circles around a terrible Jets pass defense, racking up 9 catches for 146 receiving yards on 10 targets.

However, we know that his signal caller faces some tough defenses, and that trickle down effect could have an impact on Hilton. T.Y. starts with a tough matchup against the Texans. These two teams have met once already this season, and Hilton was held in check with 3 catches for 49 yards.

Following that one, the Colts face the Vikings and ace defensive back Xavier Rhodes, who's already held the likes of Odell Beckham (23 receiving yards) and Larry Fitzgerald (63 receiving yards) in check this year. The Vikings have yet to allow a 100-yard game to any wideout in 2016.

Like Luck, Hilton should be money in Week 16, but he's not in a great spot these next two weeks.
