Aidan Hutchinson injury and appreciation thread

university of michigan medical man. He was 100% accurate on the injuries to houston last year and several other players over the last year or two, league wide and he isn’t a click-bait guy. Just a diehard Lions fan practicing medicine in Seattle.

A few lions content creators use him for their stuff as well…have them on their shows etc. He is very legit.

It is too early to tell. Perhaps, but if it is a clean break and there aren’t complications, there shouldn’t be any setbacks at all.

Get well soon Hutch. Big loss, I would like to see us trade a pick to replace him for this season.

He has plenty of time to bring in a guy this deadline. The issue is that the upcoming schedule is brutal so they’ll have to navigate that leading up to the deadline.

Unfortunately now. Teams KNOW we NEED the player. Before this it was simply we WANT another edge. Meaning price just went up

Came here to post that …

Reports suggest that Hutchinson’s surgery may take place in Dallas before he returns to Detroit for recovery. While this is a devastating blow to the Lions’ defense and pass rush, there is some good news. Early medical evaluations indicate that Hutchinson is expected to make a full recovery, with doctors anticipating him to be 100% healthy by the start of the 2025 season.

In curious what he means by “early medical evaluations.”

Essentially, doctors looking at the video and then doing analysis from there.

Unless Dr. Chao has access to some sort of intel that tells him what the x-ray in the locker room said, he and everyone else on the internet is just making educated guesses.

Correct but his opinion based on his knowledge and what he saw is far superior to ours, unless you stayed at a Holiday Inn Express.

I slipped on ice and snapped my tib and fib on New Year’s of 2020. It’s life changing. But 6 months later l was on my feet and climbing mountains, and I’m not a world class athlete with the best surgeons in the world at my disposal.

Best of luck to Hutch. I’m confident he’ll get through this. Hopefully the early reports of no nerve damage are true.

I mean they check for feeling in foot and make sure it is all good.

If it is good and toes pink with good blood flow then you guess just broken bone
