Detroit Lions defensive end Aidan Hutchinson was carted off the field during the third quarter of the Lions’ matchup with the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.
Hutchinson left the field after he sacked Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott on a second-down play. Hutchinson was tackling Prescott when his left leg appeared to collide with a teammate.
