Lions Rookie Aidan Hutchinson Dedicates Three-Sack Game to Child With Leukemia

Lions defensive end Aidan Hutchinson set a rookie record Sunday when he logged three sacks against the Commanders and after the game he revealed his inspiration for the performance: A five-year-old boy named Hudson Gazsi.

“This game was dedicated to Hudson, who is a kid who just got diagnosed with leukemia,” Hutchinson said after the game. “He’s a big Lions fan, he’s from my area and I sent him a video before the game. He was cheering me on. I’m just happy to have good games to spread causes to kids like that. Just raise a lot of awareness for things like that.
