MUNICH — Lions edge rusher Aidan Hutchinson appeared to hurt his right knee while celebrating a sack of the Patriots’ Drake Maye in the first quarter of Detroit’s 35-10 win Sunday.
“Nothing new — we’ll know more when we get back in the States,” coach Dan Campbell said. “Anytime you lose a player like that and you don’t know the entirety of it … it hurts a little bit.”
Hutchinson leaped in the air but went straight to the ground after landing. He immediately grabbed his right knee. He stayed down and eventually was able to walk to the blue tent for evaluation.
He then walked gingerly to the locker room and didn’t return to the game.
Hutchinson had sacked Maye on third down at the Detroit 15-yard line on New England’s first drive. Andy Borregales then kicked a 33-yard field goal.
