Lions' Aidan Hutchinson Eyes Super Bowl Return After Gruesome Leg Injury

The star defensive end, sidelined since October, is pushing for a February comeback as Detroit fights for a championship berth.

Aidan Hutchinson, the Detroit Lions' standout defensive end, suffered a broken tibia and fibula in October and underwent surgery with a recovery timeline of 4-6 months.
Despite his injury, Hutchinson has expressed confidence in returning for the Super Bowl on February 9, provided the Lions reach the championship game.
Before his injury, Hutchinson led the NFL with 7.5 sacks in just five games, doubling the total of any other Lions player this season.
The Lions are 12-2 and tied for first place in the NFC North, though their 11-game win streak was recently snapped by the Buffalo Bills.
Detroit's roster has been heavily impacted by injuries, with 21 players on injured reserve, including key defensive contributors and running back David Montgomery.
