ALLEN PARK, Mich. — For Aidan Hutchinson, practice makes perfect. And not just on the football field.<\/p>\n
As the Detroit Lions’ No. 2 overall pick prepares to make his prime-time debut against the Green Bay Packers on “Sunday Night Football,” the Michigan native admitted to rehearsing his player introduction lines in the mirror before shooting the actual video after Thursday’s practice.<\/p>\n
“A couple times,” Hutchinson said, smiling. “I feel like it’s so iconic with everybody. So, it’s going to be fun and like I said, everything about this game is what I love about football.”<\/p>\n
When the Lions travel to Lambeau Field to face the Packers, it’ll be Detroit’s first prime-time game since Week 2 of last season — which was also at Green Bay.<\/p>\n
“It’s really big, and I think we’re excited for it,” Lions quarterback Jared Goff said on the magnitude of the national game. “I think it’s something we’ve earned, and we’re playing for a playoff spot, and been through a lot this year. We’re ready for a game that’ll be fun in front of everybody.”<\/p>\n
