Aidan Hutchinson taken off on cart with horrible leg injury

Aidan Hutchinson was taken off the field on a cart during his Detroit Lions’ Week 6 game against the Dallas Cowboys at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, on Sunday after suffering a serious leg injury.

Dallas had a 2nd-and-5 situation from their 34-yard line with just under 12 minutes left in the third quarter. Hutchinson was rushing from the left end and came in to wrap up Dak Prescott for a sack. But there was a collision as Hutchinson made the sack. His lower left leg slammed into the leg of teammate Alim McNeill and appeared to snap.

Hutchinson was down on the field in pain and received medical attention. Hutchinson appeared to say “it’s broken” regarding his leg.

FOX declined to show a replay out of respect for the Lions star. Players from both teams gathered around Hutchinson as he was put on a cart to be taken off the field.

Hutchinson was the No. 2 overall pick by the Lions in 2022. He has performed up to expectations and was up to 7.5 sacks in just five games this season.
