Orthopedic

Detroit Lions defensive end Aidan Hutchinson has undergone surgery at Dallas-based Baylor White Medical Center to repair a fractured tibia and fibula, according to an Oct. 14 report from NBC Sports.

Mr. Hutchinson suffered a fractured leg during an Oct. 13 game against the Dallas Cowboys. He is expected to make a full recovery, but has no timeline for return to play. 

There is a chance Mr. Hutchinson could return to the field if the Lions make it to Super Bowl LIX in February, according to the report.
