Ohio State running back Treveyon Henderson was spotted in a walking boot following last weekend’s win over Toledo. That understandably led to fans being worried about his status for Week 4.
Despite suffering an injury just seven days ago, Henderson will be available for the Buckeyes tonight. ESPN’s Adam Rittenberg was first to announce the talented running back’s status.
“Ohio State will have top running back TreVeyon Henderson tonight against Wisconsin, per source,” Rittenberg reported on Twitter. “That was the expectation all week, but Henderson is good to go.”
This is excellent news for Ohio State. Henderson is averaging 6.8 yards per carry through the first three games of the season.
Since Henderson is coming off an injury, Ohio State could give a larger workload to Miyan Williams this Saturday. He has 207 rushing yards and one touchdown on 32 carries this season.
This Saturday evening’s showdown with Wisconsin should be a stiff test for Ryan Day’s squad. ‘
Wisconsin’s offense has been very inconsistent this month, there’s no denying that. However, the defense has been stout each game.
We’ll see if Ohio State can improve to 4-0 later tonight.
