Sounds like he better sit this season out. I hate to be a debbie-downer, but if he wants to take part in athletics in the future, and possibly even on into college, he needs to give this time to heal properly.
I don't know about supplements, other than milk. Maybe a calcium supp. He could still do some resistance work (not upper body) since that actually heats up the bone and makes it more permeable by calcium, supposedly increasing absorption by 300%.
