Aidan Hutchinson downplays thigh injury: ‘It’ll be fine’

Detroit Lions rookie Aidan Hutchinson returned to the practice field on Friday after missing the previous two practices with a thigh injury, and all signs point to him playing this week against the Minnesota Vikings. When asked if he was feeling any side effects of the injury, he responded, “I don’t think so. I’m feeling good.”

Hutchinson isn’t sure when or how he suffered the injury during last week’s game against the Washington Commanders but obviously felt the pain grow throughout the final half of the game.

“One play, I got up and it hurt a little bit and then the next thing you know it got a little worse,” Hutchinson said.
