Aidan Hutchinson Likely Done for Season

By Matt Schauf | Updated on Sun, 13 Oct 2024, 6:49 PM EDT

Lions Edge Aidan Hutchinson left in the third quarter of Sunday's game against the Cowboys after suffering a serious left leg injury. Replay pretty clearly shows a fracture in the lower leg. We'll see about the damage beyond that. But it seems pretty safe to assume Hutchinson will miss the rest of the season.

Losing Hutchinson obviously removes a key IDP and the best player from Detroit's defense. That'll damage their potential for use as a streaming defense.

We'll see about the specifics of the injury and Hutchinson's return timeline before projecting impact beyond that.
