Colts' T.Y. Hilton out to pass Julio Jones for first in receiving yards

INDIANAPOLIS -- Colts receiver T.Y. Hilton has never led the league in receiving yards at any level of football.

Not in youth league. Not in high school. Not in college. Not in the NFL.

The closest he’s come to accomplishing that feat was finishing second in the Sun Belt Conference his freshman and junior seasons at Florida International.

Hilton is hoping history doesn’t repeat itself again, because he’s only five yards behind the Atlanta Falcons' Julio Jones for the NFL lead in receiving yards with two weeks remaining in the regular season.
