Ohio State gets key player back from injury for B1G opener vs. Wisconsin, per report
Published:
Ohio State has been dealing with injuries through the first few weeks of the season. The Buckeyes will reportedly have one of their top running backs ready for the Wisconsin game per ESPN’s Adam Rittenberg.
TreVeyon Henderson will supposedly be back in action on Saturday night. Henderson has been dealing with a shoulder injury since the Week 2 win over Arkansas State.
#OhioState will have top running back TreVeyon Henderson tonight against #Wisconsin, per source. That was the expectation all week, but Henderson is good to go. He was wearing a walking boot for precaution after last week’s win over Toledo.

Henderson has 197 yards rushing with 3 touchdowns so far in 2022. He had a huge breakout season last year as a freshman, with 1,248 yards rushing and 15 touchdowns on the ground.
Ohio State will be tested as Wisconsin’s tough defense will be coming to Columbus. The most points that the Badgers have allowed so far is 17 points to Washington State in Week 2. The Buckeyes will be a different challenge for Wisconsin, however.
With C.J. Stroud, Henderson, Jaxon Smith-Njigba, and Julian Fleming now healthy, Wisconsin will have its hands full.
Ohio State and Wisconsin meet in Columbus Saturday at 7:30 p.m. ET on ABC.
