Veteran receiver TY Hilton engages on social media after the Indianapolis Colts Week 18 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars.
The Indianapolis Colts season came to an unexpected end on Sunday when they were upset by the Jacksonville Jaguars. In a game where the Colts were expected to dominate, they were the team being embarrassed.
As is the norm in 2022, many people went to Twitter to express their disappointment and frustrations with Indianapolis. While fans and former Colts led the charge, a current player, who played on Sunday, joined in.
Wide receiver TY Hilton liked a couple of tweets that were about Indy’s loss, but one, in particular, stood out among the rest.

A meme that symbolizes missing Andrew Luck was tweeted by Darius Butler, someone who’s been critical of Carson Wentz in the past. Hilton liking the tweet leads many to believe that he too misses Luck after playing a season with Wentz.
Is TY Hilton being critical of Carson Wentz after Colts’ loss?
Social media isn’t always the best way to detect someone’s true feelings, so there’s no telling if Hilton liking this post was a shot at Wentz. But if it was, who could blame Hilton.
Wentz’s last two performances, with the season on the line, were the last thing anyone would want to see from the franchise quarterback that cost a first-round pick.
It had to be especially tough for Hilton to experience first hand, considering he’s devoted 10 years to Indianapolis and had the opportunity to be a part of a contending team this season.
Additionally, all of Hilton’s best seasons came with Luck throwing him the ball. He knows what it’s like to play with a different caliber of quarterback, so you can’t fault the man if he was a bit sentimental after possibly playing the last game of his career.
Hilton hasn’t made a decision yet on if he will retire, but this isn’t the most promising action for those who are hoping Hilton returns.
