Aidan Hutchingson is not taking his injury for granted. The Lions star talked about the difficulties and how it has taken him time to progress. He mentioned that the injury has blessed him, and it’s a humbling experience.
“Now that I’m running full speed going like you’re really grateful that when you walk you don’t feel pain. I think that this injury has definitely made me very blessed for these moments for sure,” Aidan Hutchingson said.
“When you go from one second you’re just a high performing athlete running at full speed bending corners and the next one you can’t even get to the bathroom on your own. It’s like a very humbling experience so I think when you get all that stuff back you don’t take it for granted,” Hutchingson continued.
