Michigan Wolverines DE Aidan Hutchinson to have surgery on fractured leg

Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh announced starting defensive end Aidan Hutchinson will undergo surgery for a fracture to his leg.

Hutchinson suffered an injury in Michigan's loss to Indiana on Saturday, walked off the field, but was shown on the television broadcast wearing a boot on the sidelines.

"He's worked so hard, he's put so much into it and playing really good," Harbaugh said. "But I know he'll come back stronger, faster, better, it's just the way he is. He's so high-drive and this is not something that's going to be a detriment to his career.
