The Wisconsin Badgers football program will welcome an NFL legacy for an official visit this summer. 

Per a report by 247Sports, three-star WR Eugene Hilton Jr — the son of NFL receiver T.Y. Hilton — will make his way to Madison for an official visit on the first weekend of June.


Per the composite rankings, Hilton is the No. 403 player in the nation, the No. 56 WR, and the No. 6 player in Indiana.

Wisconsin Football Has Eugene Hilton Jr. High on Their Recruiting Board

Hilton has amassed 25 total offers, but he trimmed his list down to six, with Wisconsin football, Miami, Ole Miss, Missouri, Kentucky, and Florida International making the revised list. 

The three-star receiver has already made a stop in Madison, as he attended the Badgers primetime matchup versus Ohio State. 

According to MaxPreps, Hilton hauled in 46 receptions for 836 yards and ten touchdowns during his junior campaign at Zionsville High School. He also served as the primary kick returner, logging 201 return yards. 


Hilton will have a chance to connect with new Badgers wide receivers coach Kenny Guiton during the visit. Guiton has a track record of success in recruiting the receiver position, earning four 4-star commits and two 3-stars during his time at Arkansas.

It’s worth noting that Missouri currently holds a Crystal Ball prediction to land Hilton’s services, but his upcoming visit to Wisconsin could help move the needle in the Badgers’ favor. 

The Wisconsin football program has yet to add a wide receiver commit in the 2025 cycle, but they’re involved with prospects like Cameron Miller, Quannell X Farrakhan Jr, and Kamren Flowers.
