Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton got off to a slow start production-wise in 2020 but the last month has been extremely kind to the veteran. He continued that trend with another big game in the 44-27 win over the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday.

After going over the century mark for the first time this season in Week 13 against the Houston Texans, Hilton followed that up with an encore performance, this time finding the end zone twice in the same game for the first time since Week 1 of the 2019 season.

That’s 20 consecutive games without recording multiple touchdowns.

It started in the first quarter when the Colts took an 11-play, 72-yard drive all the way to the end zone. It was capped off by quarterback Philip Rivers finding Hilton in the back of the end zone for a seven-yard score.

Hilton then turned back the clock and torched the Raiders secondary in the second quarter for a 41-yard touchdown. He straight up just out-ran the Raiders secondary and Rivers found him with ease for his second touchdown of the day.

Over the last three games, Hilton has 17 receptions for 277 yards and four touchdowns. His 23 targets in that span leads the team.

The Colts have three games remaining on the schedule as they look to make a playoff push, and getting Hilton on this track is going to be huge for Indy.
