Aidan Hutchinson leads all NFL rookies in sacks and got his first career interception last week.
But as the Detroit Lions defensive end starts to show more of the ability that made him the No. 2 pick in April's draft, he insists he is not worried about how his statistics compare to his peers.
"That’s cool, but I’m not really aiming to beat the other rookies," Hutchinson said Thursday. "That’s not really my mentality. It’s never been my mentality. I kind of think above that and just rolling every day and working hard."
Hutchinson's pass rush production has largely been confined to two games this season.
