INDIANAPOLIS — Purdue expects true freshman Sean Robinson to make his second career start against Michigan.

Robinson started in last Saturday's 34-13 loss to Wisconsin. He led the Boilermakers to a 10-6 halftime lead, but threw three interceptions in the second half, including one which was returned for a touchdown.

Robinson is expected to start on Saturday in place of Rob Henry, a redshirt freshman who led the Boilermakers to two conference wins before he cut a finger on his right hand against Ohio State. Robinson has gotten most of the work the past two weeks.

Walk-on Skyler Titus has moved up to No. 2 on the depth chart at quarterback. Receiver and former quarterback Justin Siller will practice at quarterback this week if he has recovered from a foot injury.
