Bengals take another chance on Henry

Football Betting Lines

08/19/2008 - Cincinnati, OH (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Cincinnati Bengals signed troubled wide receiver Chris Henry on Tuesday.

The Bengals released Henry on April 3 after his fifth arrest since the club made him their third-round pick in the 2005 NFL Draft. Charges for that arrest were later dropped, and, subsequently, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell's indefinite suspension was revised to a four-game ban.

For his repeated violations of the league's personal conduct policy, Henry will miss the first four games of the 2008 season, but will still be able to participate in practice and preseason games. However, during the suspension, which starts on September 1, Henry will also be held out of practice.

Henry was a productive third option in the Bengals' passing attack over the past three seasons, compiling 88 catches for 1,370 yards and 17 touchdowns.

The 25-year old missed half of the 2007 season with a league suspension for his continued run-ins with the law. His brushes include possession of marijuana and providing alcohol to minors.

After being reinstated midway through last season, the West Virginia product caught 21 passes for 343 yards and two touchdowns.

Also on Tuesday, the Bengals waived cornerback Jerrid Gaines, who had signed as a rookie free agent on August 5.
