No other area in the country produces more NFL players than this area of South Florida. Hilton would go on to lead the Panthers to 5 wins in his first year and a bowl win in another in route to becoming FIU’s all-time leader in career receptions, career receiving yards, career receiving touchdowns, single-season receptions, single-season receiving yards, single-game receptions, and single-game receiving yards. Hilton was an underdog again when he entered the National Football League (NFL). Even after leading the NFL in receiving yards last season, Hilton was left off of the NFL All Pro 1st and 2nd team and is rarely mentioned in discussions about the NFL’s best wideout. In spite of significant odds, Hilton has willed himself to the top of NFL wide receivers.
