Michigan junior defensive end Aidan Hutchinson left the Indiana game with an apparent leg injury and Jim Harbaugh confirmed that the talented pass rusher will need surgery. 

Fortunately for Michigan fans, Hutchinson has very deep maize and blue roots and two years of eligibility remaining due to the redshirt/COVID campaign in 2020. Because of those things, there seems to be a very strong possibility that he'll return to Ann Arbor rather than head to the NFL.

The 6-6, 269-pounder is going to miss 4-6 months of time but is expected to make a full recovery and return to full strength after he's healed.
