The Detroit Lions were having a great afternoon in Texas, beating the Dallas Cowboys handily 34-6 early in the third quarter when Pro Bowl pass rusher Aidan Hutchinson broke his leg.
Hutchinson was wrapping up Dak Prescott in the backfield when something went horribly wrong. Hutchinson immediately went down in a heap. FOX showed multiple replays as they went into commercial and on the final replay you can see his inability to control his left foot.
By the time the broadcast returned from commercial the cart had come out to get Hutchinson and his teammates had gathered around the star defensive lineman. Kevin Burkhardt explained that FOX would not be showing the replay again.
Aidan Hutchinson is being carted off of the field.

FOX did however upload a video before anyone realized what exactly had happened. You can see it below if you want.
Be warned, it is a gruesome injury.
