Trulon Henry hopes to be on Illinois' sideline Saturday

"He wants to be strong enough to stand on the sidelines with his teammates Saturday against Wisconsin," Morgan Henry said.

Henry was in considerable pain but will not need surgery, his wife said. He underwent a CAT scan Monday afternoon, she said.

Henry will learn more about his rehabilitation plans after he begins working with a physical therapist following his release from the hospital. Doctors initially told Henry he will need six to eight weeks to recover and the same amount of time to rehabilitate.
