TreVeyon Henderson won’t be able to play in Ohio State’s College Football Playoff clash with No. 1 Georgia in the Peach Bowl. Henderson tweeted Tuesday evening that he hoped to play, but unfortunately, won’t be suiting up until next season.

“As much as I wanted to finish out the season with my brothers, I know God have bigger and better plans for me! It’s always light at the end of the tunnel, be back better than ever..” he wrote.

At the end of the regular season, Henderson revealed that he had been playing through a fracture and a torn ligament in his left foot. He told Bill Rabinowitz of The Columbus Dispatch that he will be having surgery.

“I have to have surgery on my foot because it’s gotten that bad since the third game,” Henderson told The Dispatch. “I’ve just been making it worse going back out there.”

“It’s real painful. I barely practiced all season. I went through a bunch of different cleats to try to push through it, but the pain was crazy. I really don’t know how I was able to push through it in the games I did play in. I just tried to do the best I can.”

Henderson played in 8 games this season, rushing 107 times for 571 yards and 6 touchdowns. He rushed for over 100 yards against Wisconsin and Michigan State, even after injuring his foot in the Toledo game.
