  • Aidan Hutchinson suffered a fractured tibia and fibula in Week 6 against the Cowboys and underwent surgery in October.
  • The 24-year-old defensive end has declared he is 'on track' to return if the Lions reach Super Bowl LIX on February 9, 2025.
  • Before his injury, Hutchinson led the NFL with 7.5 sacks and was considered a frontrunner for Defensive Player of the Year.
  • The Lions, currently 12-2 and tied for the NFC's top seed, face mounting injuries with several key players ruled out for the season.
  • Detroit must win two playoff games to reach the Super Bowl, where Hutchinson hopes to rejoin his team and bolster their defense.
