NFL star Aidan Hutchinson suffers gruesome leg injury during Detroit Lions’ game against the Dallas Cowboys
Detroit Lions defensive star Aidan Hutchinson suffered a suspected broken leg against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.
Hutchinson, the NFL’s sack leader, suffered the injury early in the third quarter while trying to tackle Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott.
The 24-year-old’s leg collided with teammate Alim McNeill who was coming from the opposite direction and when Hutchinson fell to the ground the damage was obvious.
Both groups of players knelt next to him and said prayers as Hutchinson received medical treatment.
Hutchinson was drafted No. 2 overall in the 2022 NFL draft and has proven to be a transformational presence for the Lions, who are Super Bowl contenders this season.
