Aidan Hutchinson came dancing into Ford Field. Emerging through a wave of smoke.
Scooting between the cheerleaders. Pumping his arms. The familiar eye black smeared across his face.
The crowd in Ford Field went crazy. It was during pregame introductions, as the defense was announced; and from that point, I swear Hutchinson never stopped moving. He was all effort. All power. "Mr. Never Give Up," recording three sacks in the first half alone during a 36-27 victory over the Washington Commanders.
Hutchinson, the Lions' first-round pick out of Michigan, didn’t win this game by himself.
