It was a nice surprise when the Los Angeles Rams selected Michigan State football offensive tackle AJ Arcuri in the sixth round back in 2022. Arcuri has stuck around the Rams as a reserve lineman for the last few years, and because of injuries, Arcuri was thrust into the starting lineup against the Detroit Lions in prime time in week one of the NFL season.
Arcuri didn’t just get a chance to play, he was asked to go up against an old nemesis: Aidan Hutchinson. Hutchinson was at Michigan when Arcuri was at MSU, and the two played on the same side of the line during their college careers.
While it was a cool moment for MSU fans to see Arcuri get in the game, at least at the time of this post I can’t say that he has been winning that exchange with Hutchinson. To be fair, Arcuri is usually the third string tackle, and Hutchinson is one of the best defensive ends in the league.
