The Detroit Lions beat the Dallas Cowboys, but may have suffered a significant loss on the defensive side of the ball.

The Lions' star pass rusher Aidan Hutchinson suffered a potentially serious leg injury in the third quarter of Detroit's Week 6 game. There was a play where he sacked Dak Prescott but awkwardly bent his leg while bringing the Dallas quarterback to the ground.

Hutchinson immediately grabbed his leg as he fell to the ground. He ripped off his gloves and lay there while Detroit's medical staff tended to him.

The game was significantly delayed as Hutchinson remained on the ground. Eventually he was dragged into the Lions locker room.

Numerous players from both the Lions and Cowboys surrounded the car and wished Hutchinson well before he left the field.
