Trulon Henry likely back for bowl

Recovery from gunshot wound going well so linebacker has 'very good chance' to play

Because of his quick recovery from a gunshot wound, doctors told Illinois linebacker Trulon Henry Wednesday that he has a "very good chance" to play in the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl against UCLA on Dec. 31, according to a source.

Henry, a senior, was shot in the right hand Nov. 13 when he went to a party to drive home teammates.
