The Detroit Lions have officially placed defensive end Aidan Hutchinson (leg) on injured reserve Wednesday. Hutchinson suffered a gruesome leg injury in the Week 6 win over the Cowboys. The official diagnosis is a fractured tibia and fibula, which will keep him out for the remainder of the season. Up to this point, Hutchinson led the NFL in sacks with 7.5, and his absence will be a huge loss for the Lions' pass rush. He is expected to make a full recovery and could potentially return at some point during the 2025 season.

Aidan Hutchinson Expected To Be Out 4-6 Months Following Surgery
Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell said that star pass-rusher Aidan Hutchinson (leg) had successful surgery on Sunday night and is expected to be out for four to six months. Hutchinson is expected to miss the remainder of the 2024 season, but Campbell said that if anyone could make it back, it would be Hutchinson. The 24-year-old defensive end had surgery to fix a compound fracture of his tibia and fibula after a gruesome leg injury in the Week 6 blowout win over the Dallas Cowboys. He will return to Detroit this weekend and is expected to make a full recovery. Fantasy managers in IDP formats will obviously need to pivot and look for other options at the defensive line position the rest of the way. Meanwhile, Detroit's defensive unit in fantasy will surely take a hit after losing not only their best pass-rusher, but one of the best young sack artists in the game. The former second overall pick out of Michigan has a league-high 7.5 sacks after six weeks.

Aidan Hutchinson To Miss Remainder Of 2024
Detroit Lions star pass-rusher Aidan Hutchinson (tibia) will miss the remainder of the 2024 season after undergoing emergency surgery Sunday to repair a compound fracture, per Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team. Hutchinson suffered the injury while sacking quarterback Dak Prescott in the Lions' 47-9 win over the Dallas Cowboys. The third-year defensive standout completed the sack but immediately grabbed his leg upon hitting the ground and was carted off the field in an air cast. He'll now spend the night in a local Dallas hospital. It's a massive blow to Detroit's defense, as the 24-year-old led the league in sacks (6.5) entering Week 6 and is a formidable game-breaker off the edge. Defensive end Isaac Ukwu figures to pick up snaps with the injury to Hutchinson, and Detroit may seek help elsewhere with no other healthy defensive ends on the roster. The Lions will get a road matchup in Week 7 against the undefeated Minnesota Vikings.

Aidan Hutchinson Carted Off On Sunday
Detroit Lions defensive end Aidan Hutchinson (leg) was carted off the field in Sunday's meeting with the Dallas Cowboys. The 24-year-old entered Week 6 with 6.5 sacks, the most in the National Football League. He recorded another on Sunday. Unfortunately, his latest sack may cost him some time, especially since he immediately grabbed his leg afterward and was placed in an aircast before leaving the field. This isn't a good situation for the Lions, so IDP managers will anxiously await an update, which will likely come soon.

Aidan Hutchinson Has Favorable Matchup in Week 5
Detroit Lions edge rusher Aidan Hutchinson has a favorable matchup against the Carolina Panthers in Week 5, in which he will attempt to record multiple sacks for the third straight game. The Panthers have allowed pressure on 28% of their passing plays, the sixth-highest rate, and the Lions have created pressure on 34% of pass rushes, tied for the seventh-highest rate. The Lions' pass rush has ramped it up in the past two weeks, as Hutchinson, Charles Harris, and Alim McNeill have combined for seven sacks. Hutchinson himself has recorded all 3.5 of his sacks in Weeks 3 and 4 and four of his seven QB hits. This week, he has a good shot to add to those numbers and is a quality start for IDP fantasy football.

Aidan Hutchinson Leads the NFL in Pressures After Thursday Night Football
Detroit Lions edge rusher Aidan Hutchinson made two tackles and 1.5 sacks in the Lions' 34-20 win over the Packers on Thursday Night Football. According to PFF's unofficial statistics, the second-year standout made a total of eight pressures and two QB hits. That puts him at 27 total pressures on the season, an average of 6.8 per game, both of which lead the NFL. He had 19 pressures in the first three weeks, which is tied for the most of any defensive player who has played three games.

Aidan Hutchinson Feeling Better
Detroit Lions defensive end Aidan Hutchinson (ankle, illness) returned to practice on Wednesday. "I was hit hard a couple days ago," said Hutchinson, who has been out because of an ankle injury while also battling an illness. It's certainly a positive update, considering the 23-year-old finished his rookie campaign by logging 52 total tackles and an impressive 9.5 sacks. The Lions need him to stay healthy, especially since he's expected to be even more productive in 2023-24.

Aidan Hutchinson, Frank Ragnow Expected To Play Sunday
Detroit Lions pass-rusher Aidan Hutchinson (thigh) and center Frank Ragnow (foot) are expected to be active for Week 3 against the Minnesota Vikings, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Both players had been listed as questionable. Hutchinson is coming off a fantastic performance in which he totaled three sacks and six tackles. Meanwhile, Ragnow remains a centerpiece of the Lions' offense, solidifying the protection of quarterback Jared Goff, running back D'Andre Swift (ankle), and others.

Aidan Hutchinson Expects To Play In Week 3
Detroit Lions rookie defensive end Aidan Hutchinson (thigh), who is officially listed as questionable for Week 3 against the Minnesota Vikings, said he's "feeling good" and expects to play on Sunday. Hutchinson missed practice Wednesday and Thursday before being limited on Friday. "I think come game time, I won't even be thinking about that," Hutchinson said. It's good news after top pass-rusher John Cominsky (hand) underwent surgery on Tuesday. He won't play against Minnesota. Hutchinson, the No. 2 overall pick in this year's draft, has already recorded three sacks, seven tackles (five solo), two tackles for loss and three QB hits in his first two NFL games.

Aidan Hutchinson "Fine" After Suffering Leg Injury
Detroit Lions defensive end Aidan Hutchinson declared he is "fine" after suffering a leg injury during Sunday's meeting with Washington. The 2022 No. 2 overall selection certainly had himself a day, finishing six total tackles (five solo). The 22-year-old also recorded three sacks, a team record for a rookie. After Hutchinson logged only one tackle in Week 1, he certainly turned things around in this one. IDP dynasty managers who have him stashed may want to consider calling him up, especially since he appears ready to contribute.
