Eugene Hilton Jr. News, Rumors, Updates - Wisconsin Badgers | FOX Sports

DNP for Sunday's scrimmage Hilton (undisclosed) did not play Sunday's scrimmage, Evan Flood of On3.com reports.

Impact It is unclear why Hilton did not play in Sunday's scrimmage, as it would have been a perfect chance to show why he has been working with Wisconsin's starters throughout the UW fall camp. He has two weeks to recover until UW's regular-season opener Sept. 6 at Notre Dame.

Working with starters Hilton worked with the starters on offense during Wednesday's practice, according to Seamus Rohrer of SI.com.

Impact Hilton is in a battle for the WR3 role with Jaylon Domingeaux, but he seems to be edging out the latter in the race. He's shown early chemistry with starting quarterback Colton Joseph in fall camp, and he was impressive in Wednesday's practice with four touchdowns in team drills, including two from Joseph. Hiton looks to be in a solid position to open the 2026 season in a starting role.

Showing early chemistry Hilton is connecting with starting quarterback Colton Joseph early in the Badgers' fall camp, Christian Borman of Wisconsin Badgers on SI.

Impact Hilton opted to return to Wisconsin showing his trust in head coach Luke Fickell, and he is now aiming to establish himself as a primary target for new starting quarterback Colton Joseph. The pair connected on multiple passes during Saturday's practice, topped by a 35-yard completion on a crossing route. With fall camp underway, wideout has an opportunity to climb a Badger receiving depth chart that currently lacks true No. 1 option.

Returning to Wisconsin Hilton is returning to Wisconsin for the 2026 season, Nick Osen of 247Sports.com reports.

Impact Hilton will rejoin the Badgers for his sophomore campaign after entering the transfer portal in late December. The 6-foot-1 wide receiver logged eight catches for 91 yards in the 2025 season. He should be a catalyst for change in Wisconsin's program, and he'll likely be a top target in the passing offense this upcoming year.

Plans to enter portal Hilton plans to enter the NCAA's transfer portal, On3 reports.

Impact Despite the Wisconsin team's 2025 struggles, Hilton was not a primary option for UW, though he was tested much more in conference action than non-conference games. The wide receiver, who finished this year with just under 100 yards, has three years of collegiate eligibility remaining.

Impact Hilton impressed all throughout the Badgers' fall camp, which explains why he will log in-game snaps during their 2025 season. The question becomes how many he will record per game.

Impact Hilton continues to impress in camp, stacking strong practice performances and drawing attention. The true freshman receiver is currently working with the second team but could soon begin earning reps with the starters.
