Detroit Lions star Aidan Hutchinson rushes the passer better than most defensive players in the NFL. As for his golf game? Let’s just say it needs some work.
On Tuesday, Aidan Hutchinson performed at the Area 313 Celebrity Golf Scramble tournament in Detroit, Michigan. Per John Maakaron of Sports Illustrated, Hutchinson was on a team with Lions legend and former wide receiver Calvin Johnson, Michigan State men’s basketball head coach Tom Izzo and Basketball Hall of Famer Chris Webber.
Jeanna Trotman of WXYZ Detroit shared a video of Hutchinson taking a golf shot at the 15th hole. Though he’s supposed to be going for the green here, Hutchinson’s tee shot looks like that of a chip shot.

So far, Hutchinson has come as advertised. The Plymouth native has recorded 21 sacks, 10 pass breakups, four interceptions, three forced fumbles and four fumble recoveries over his first two seasons.
Hutchinson led the Lions to their first division title in 30 years last season, as well as their first playoff victory and NFC Championship appearance since 1991. Detroit fell 34-31 to the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC title game, having coughed up a 17-point lead.
