Ahead of debut, Lions' Aidan Hutchinson already carrying himself like a vet

Allen Park — The first game for every first-round draft pick is exciting, but there's a different level of buzz surrounding the impending debut of Detroit Lions defensive end Aidan Hutchinson.

A homegrown product who played his high school ball for Dearborn Divine Child and collegiately at the University of Michigan, Hutchinson's jersey has been the most requested by a fan base as they look to him to resuscitate a pass rush that's been on life support the past few seasons.

Generally speaking, debuts and lofty expectations are a good source of nerves, but Hutchinson seems to be taking everything in stride.
