![Perhaps it’s best to let Chris Harris Jr. explain why it’s so hard to cover T.Y. Hilton, a 5-foot-9 receiver nicknamed “The Ghost." “I’m going to sound like a broken record, but it’s true — T.Y. is another guy who can line up all over the field, which makes him very unpredictable. Similar to [Antonio Brown], he’s a guy who is very patient in his routes, but the thing that sticks out the most is that he takes very precise angles,” Harris told The Players’ Tribune last year. Even without Andrew Luck as his quarterback, Hilton has turned in a productive season, totaling 811 yards for four touchdowns thus far. He also remains a big-play threat, so Harris will have his hands full. As Harris looks to make his case for another Pro Bowl, shutting down Hilton could provide a healthy boost.](https://static.clubs.nfl.com/image/private/t_editorial_landscape_3_4_desktop_2x/t_lazy/f_auto/broncos/yvshlmym3tcy8kjzt6cq.jpg)
