Aidan Hutchinson, former Michigan Wolverine star, has turned things around in his debut NFL season. Early this year it didn’t look like the 1st round pick was able to replicate the same success he had in college but after a few changes, mostly positional, things have drastically improved.

The young defensive end has had 3 turnovers in the last 3 weeks including a recovered fumble against the New York Giants in Week 11 which helped secure a 31-18 victory. The other turnovers were interceptions against Aaron Rodgers and Daniel Jones leading the Lions to 3 wins in a row.

Hutchinson’s play has been game-changing, and on top of the NFC Defensive Player of the Week Award, he has been nominated as the NFL’s Rookie of the Week 3 times this season in just 11 weeks.

So far this season, Hutchinson has recorded 31 tackles, 6.5 sacks and 2 interceptions.
