T.Y. Hilton, the star-wide receiver for the Indianapolis Colts, has retired from the

NFL after a standout career.

The 36-year-old made the announcement on X this week, just over three years since his

last game.

He spent most of his 10 years in the league with the Colts, turning into one of their all-time

grades.

Drafted in the third round back in 2012, Hilton broke out right away as a rookie with 50

catches, 861 yards, and 7 touchdowns.

He hit over 1,000 yards in five of his first six full seasons, earned four pro-bowl nods,

and led the league in receiving yards in 2000, 16 with 1,448.

Fans in the Colts organization remember Hilton for his big impact, ranking third in team

history for receiving yards at 9,600, 91 behind only legends Marvin Harrison and Reggie

Wayne.

He also sits high on lists for catches, touchdowns, and a hundred yard games, showing his consistency

over nearly a decade.

One of his signature moments came in the 2013 playoffs, where he torch the chiefs for

224 yards, including a 64-yard touchdown and a wild 28-point comeback win.

That performance still stands as the most receiving yards in a single Colts game.

After leaving Indianapolis following the 2021 season, Hilton played three games for the

Dallas Cowboys at the end of 2000, 22.

Now he's stepped into coaching as head football coach at his old high school, Miami Springs,

starting a new chapter.
