Detroit Lions defensive end Aidan Hutchinson has been a menace this season, but there’s one aspect of his game that appears to have taken a big leap in 2023: his ability as an interior pass rusher.
While the Lions have pushed Hutchinson inside ever since they drafted him second overall last year, he didn’t really adopt that mentality early on in his career.
“I think I didn’t want to accept it,” Hutchinson admitted. “And I kinda just said, ‘Eff it, dude, I’m here. Might as well just go.’ I feel like it was just a mindset change more than a move learned.
