Fantasy Football 2018: Thursday Night Football Start Em, Sit Em Week 5
SIT ‘EM
Wide Receiver. Colts. T.Y. Hilton. 1. player. 46.
*EDITOR’S NOTE: THIS POST WAS WRITTEN BEFORE IT WAS ANNOUNCED THAT T.Y. HILTON WAS OUT FOR THURSDAY NIGHT’S GAME*
It’s rare for anyone to suggest sitting T.Y. Hilton, but the Colts star wide receiver isn’t someone you should bank on much this week. He was banged up during last week’s loss to the Texans and it’s a short week to try and get healthy.
Even if Hilton does see the field on Thursday, it’s doubtful that the Colts have him out there much. It sucks for those who have Hilton on their team because the guy crushed the Texans last week. He had four receptions for 115 yards and some of that was even AFTER he was initially injured.
The guy is a beast and is always someone Luck is looking for down the field. Against this mediocre Patriots defense, Hilton would have been a great option for fantasy owners to have this week.
Hilton is always a must start, but unfortunately he was injured last week and four days isn’t enough to recover. Keep an eye on his status, but like I said, even if Hilton is a go for Thursday night, don’t count on him to get you a ton of points.
