Wide receiver T.Y. Hilton said Thursday he turned down more money to re-sign with the Indianapolis Colts, the only franchise he's played for in the NFL.
"I wanted to stay here no matter what the cost was. I gave up a lot of money to stay here and that's what I wanted to do," he told reporters.
Hilton signed a one-year, $8 million contract to return to Indianapolis. He is guaranteed $8 million and can earn up to $10 million if he reaches incentives.
Hilton confirmed he turned down a multiyear offer from the Baltimore Ravens but said it was fun to get recruited by other teams.
