The Indianapolis Colts are on the road this afternoon against the Dallas Cowboys in what is expected to be a very good matchup, and there are major playoff implications on the line. Dallas is looking to clinch the NFC East division after the Philadelphia Eagles lost to the Washington Redskins on Saturday afternoon, while the Colts are trying to win home field advantage.

Wide receiver T.Y. Hilton of the Colts has come through with a huge season, but is battling a hamstring injury that has bothered him all week. It appears that he is going to try and play, but he is a long shot to actually get on the field and make an impact.

Hilton has caught 82 passes for 1,345 yards and seven touchdowns. Those numbers show just how valuable Hilton has been to the Colts, and it would be very tough for them to pull out a win without him.

Expect to see more news about Hilton throughout the day, but as of right now he is going to do everything he can to get on the field. It is going to be a painful injury to play through, and the last thing that the Colts need is for him to make things worse by trying to play on it.
