Parents of superstar Aidan Hutchinson talk about their son’s journey with U-M, Detroit Lions

Parents have a special way they communicate during the game with Hutchinson

The parents of defensive end former Michigan Wolverines superstar and current Detroit Lions monster Aidan Hutchinson have had a front-row seat to his historic season.

Before being drafted by the Lions two years ago, Hutchinson played football inside the Big House.

Even though he wasn’t on the 2023 national championship team, his parents and Kimberly Gill talked about some similarities between what got the Wolverines to that win and what we’re seeing at Ford Field.

During Local 4′s pre-game special this Sunday (Jan. 21), you will hear so much more from the Hutchinson family, including the special bond between Aiden and his dad.

We can’t wait to tell you about the one special way they communicate during the game.

Watch the video above for the full story.
