Lions News: Aidan Hutchinson makes PFF’s first-quarter All-Pro team

Aidan Hutchinson is continuing to add to his accolades. This time making PFF’s quarterly All-Pro team.

As one of the top young pass rushers in the league, Aidan Hutchinson is making his mark just four games into the season.

The 24-year-old University of Michigan product made Pro Football Focus’s first-quarter All-Pro team. He currently has a 93.8 overall PFF grade, leading all NFL edge rushers.

“Through the first four weeks of the 2024 NFL season, Aidan Hutchinson has registered 40 total pressures. The next closest player has 23,” article author Gordon McGuinness writes.

Let’s talk numbers. Hutchinson leads the league in sacks at 6.5, quarterback hits at 14, and is first overall in pass-rush win rate. Last week against the Arizona Cardinals was Hutch’s fifth straight game with a sack—the longest streak in franchise history.

You may recall his monster of a game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Expect to see Hutchinson on lists like these for the foreseeable future—he’s likely only scratched the surface.
