Detroit Lions defensive end Aidan Hutchinson says he’s fully cleared after recovering from a broken tibia and fibula.
“I’m fully cleared,” Aidan Hutchinson told media Thursday. “Yeah, it’s great. I got cleared a while back, and I’m rolling with the boys now…It feels like I’m back to being myself again. I’m really looking forward to the season. I think this is the most excited I’ve been for OTAs in my life. This is the biggest hiatus I’ve had without playing ball, so I’m pumped.”
Hutchinson missed time last season due to the injury and went through months of rehab. With his health no longer a concern, he’s now eligible for a contract extension this offseason.
