Mike Hilton named AFC Defensive Player of the Week for Week 16 performance

The Pittsburgh Steelers have an elite defense, you won’t find many people who will argue with this statement. When you have an elite unit, you have elite defenders who comprise said defense. While most casual NFL fans might just think of T.J. Watt when they think of the Steelers’ defense, they might need to get to know Mike Hilton.

Hilton is coming off a game vs. the Indianapolis Colts at Heinz Field in Week 16 which earned him AFC Defensive Player of the Week honors.
