Hughes was drafted 30th overall by the Minnesota Vikings in the 2018 and has spent all three season with the team.
Hughes has played in 24 NFL games and started in seven due to injuries. An ACL injury cut his rookie campaign short and in 2019, Hughes suffered a cracked vertebra.
Last season, Hughes only played four games due to a neck injury.
