TY Hilton Shows Good Things Happen If You Get Up After You Fall (Video)

Somehow TY Hilton was able to fall in the middle of his route, get back up, and still make the catch

In the 2016 season, Indianapolis Colts star wide receiver TY Hilton has been as dominant as ever. After lighting up the San Diego Chargers for 174 yards and catching a touchdown pass in London, Hilton was busy burning up the Chicago Bears defense in Week 5.

Hilton led the way early for Indy with 117 yards of receiving on six catches. He arguably was the best player on the field for the Colts. In fact, nobody else on the Colts had more than three receptions or 26 receiving yards in the first half.

When everyone else has a rough time getting going, Hilton will always show up. The play above is a great example of how Hilton is more than just speed; he’s pure determination.

After falling down on his route, Hilton got right back up, worked himself open while Luck admirably kept the play alive, and then made an excellent sliding catch on the sideline. This is a great example of how star players like Luck and Hilton can make special things happen and they are responsible for the Colts staying just ahead of Brian Hoyer’s Bears.

Plenty of credit should go to Luck, though, and it goes beyond the fact that he kept the play alive and kept working towards Hilton even after his star wideout fell. The ball he threw was absolutely perfect, and the corner could do nothing to defend it.
