Catches long TD in win Hilton had four catches for 113 yards and a touchdown in Wednesday's Texas Bowl win over Baylor.

Impact Hilton had catches for 43 and 41 yards with the latter going for a touchdown in the second quarter. He was only active for the final six games of the season, and prior to Wednesday's outing, had just five catches for 130 yards and two touchdowns.

JANUARY 3 • ROTOWIRE

Scores twice in triumph Hilton caught all two targets for 85 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 37-17 win versus Oklahoma.

Impact This was by far the best outing of the season for Hilton, who began the year with an ankle injury and did not see the field until late-October. Combine with with a very public tongue-lashing from coach Brian Kelly, and it will be interesting to see if he stays with the program for LSU's bowl game and beyond.

DECEMBER 1, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Could see increased play Saturday Hilton could see an increase in snaps during Saturday's game versus Alabama, but is still expected to be limited, Wilson Alexander of The Baton Rouge Advocate reports.

Impact Hilton made his debut in Week 9 and saw six targets, catching two passes for 36 yards. He may see an increased number of snaps versus Alabama but is still expected to be limited since he missed so much time with an ankle injury.

NOVEMBER 7, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

With second-string unit in warmups Hilton is working with the second-string offense ahead of Saturday's game versus Texas A&M, 104.5 ESPN reports.

Impact While Hilton was seemingly in line to secure a starting role at wide receiver prior to the season, he's missed a lot of time and has fallen out of the starting group upon his return to action. Hilton could still see his share of snaps Saturday, but it doesn't appear he'll be a starter.

OCTOBER 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Will make debut Saturday Hilton (ankle) is set to play Saturday versus Texas A&M, per Pete Thamel of ESPN.

Impact Hilton will make his season debut after missing the first seven game of the season. He could be in line for a bigger role right away as CJ Daniels (undisclosed) is considered a game time decision.

OCTOBER 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Upgraded to probable Hilton (ankle) has been upgraded to probable for Saturday's game at Texas A&M.

Impact Hilton has struggled with a nagging ankle injury all season long, but he logged a full practice Thursday and is trending in the right direction to make his long-awaited season debut Saturday. The wideout made 13 catches for 225 yards and two touchdowns across eight games during his most recent healthy season in 2023.

OCTOBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Logs full practice Thursday Hilton (ankle) was a full participant in Thursday's practice and could make his season debut this weekend against Texas A&M, Shea Dixon of On3Sports.com reports.

Impact Hilton has not yet seen the field this year, as he's been recovering from an ankle injury he suffered back in August. The 6-foot wide receiver could make an immediate impact on the Tigers' passing game if he plays this Saturday, but the morning before kickoff should provide a better indication on his availability.

OCTOBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable vs. Aggies Hilton (ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against Texas A&M.

Impact Hilton has yet to play this season. He's been listed as questionable to return for several weeks, so this ultimately means very little. Hopefully, more will be revealed about the receiver's status prior to the Tigers' primetime clash in College Station.

OCTOBER 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Out once again Hilton (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game at Arkansas, Scott Rabalais of The Baton Rouge Advocate reports.

Impact Head coach Brian Kelly announced that Hilton will miss yet another game with an ankle injury. He has not played in a game yet this season. If he misses next Saturday's game at Texas A&M he would be eligible for a redshirt with just four regular season games remaining after the contest with the Aggies.

OCTOBER 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Out vs. Arkansas Hilton (ankle) is listed out for Saturday's game against the Razorbacks.

Impact Hilton will continue to be held out as he recovers from an ankle injury that has refrained him from making his season debut. The 6-foot wide receiver will aim to be available for next week's game against Texas A&M.

OCTOBER 16, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Status day-to-day Hilton (ankle) is day-to-day, Cory Diaz of The Daily Advertiser reports.

Impact Hilton's injury status being day-to-day indicates he could be available for games soon. Ideally, it will become evident by the time the SEC's injury reports come out. Hilton has yet to play a game for the 2024 Tigers this season, missing out on what could have been a breakout campaign for him thus far.
