Newsstand: Aidan Hutchinson sends message one week after surgery
Michigan Wolverines alum and Detroit Lions star pass rusher Aidan Hutchinson suffered what most believed was a season-ending leg injury last week in Dallas, but reports from the last week or so suggest he could return if his team makes the Super Bowl.
After a week of well-wishes and positive messages, Hutchinson himself took to social media for the first time since his injury to thank supporters after his team’s 31-29 win over the Minnesota Vikings. He watched the game at home with his family.
“What’s up y’all? We are one week out from surgery,” Hutchinson said. “The first days were a little rough, but now we are on the road to recovery and just attacking each day. And I want to thank all the kids, who made me the videos. I want to thank all my teammates, all the fans, all the support all over social media. It’s been amazing. And I’m doing great, just pushing through. Got to see the Lions win today. It’s a big win. So happy for them and we’re going to keep pushing, and just keep taking this thing day by day.”
Hutchinson’s Lions are back in action next Sunday against the Tennessee Titans at 1 p.m. in Downtown Detroit.

Michigan quote of the day
No, we’re still experimenting and we’ll take this game. With our analytic company, we haven’t had a chance to really play the 5-on-5 in practice without non-scholarship players, without having two or three guys out. So, we don’t really have a lot of data on our lineup combinations yet. So, in probably two or three weeks, we’ll have a better indication of these two guys really seem to play well together. This group, this small lineup, has been very efficient. Maybe we go to that in spurts for struggle offensive. So, we don’t have that information yet. We have just what meets the eye. But with foul trouble and fatigue with our pace, it’s not as easy as it is for some other teams.
