The NFL released the latest batch of its “Top 100″, and the Indianapolis Colts T.Y. Hilton was named the 35th best player according to fellow NFL players:
The 4th year wideout is coming off a breakout season for the Colts, in which he caught 82 receptions for 1,345 receiving yards and 7 touchdowns. As testament to last year’s success, Hilton made his 1st career Pro Bowl last season.
In evaluating a player, his peers often know best, especially the ones that have to actually defend him in coverage every Sunday. Among the most powerful player quotes in Hilton’s Top 100 video:
“You know he’s a guy that can take the top off a defense anytime,” said Browns safety Donte Whitner.
