Former Bengals receiver Chris Henry is drawing the interest of a yet-unnamed NFL team. Henry’s lawyer made that claim on Tuesday in order to obtain for Henry permission to travel out of the area for the purposes of visiting with said team. Henry is on house arrest in the wake of a recent assault charge, and the judge assigned to the case previously had denied a request that Henry be allowed to leave the area in the hopes of landing a new football gig. http://www.profootballtalk.com/2008/05/06/henry-in-line-for-another-second-chance/
Henry appears in court for pretrial hearing http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=3383982 CINCINNATI -- Chris Henry was in court for a pretrial hearing Tuesday, and the judge ruled that the former Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver can travel for tryouts with other NFL teams. Hamilton County Municipal Court Judge Richard Bernat ruled that Henry be released from electronic monitoring and house arrest to travel for tryouts with other teams. Bernat had denied the request until Tuesday, the Cincinnati Enquirer reported. However, Henry must have a letter from NFL teams before he is allowed to travel for tryouts, the Enquirer reported.
The Buccaneers are not interested in signing former Bengals WR Chris Henry. Reports surfaced that Henry has an upcoming tryout with an NFL team, and there was speculation in some circles that the Bucs were that team. Henry isn't going to find a receptive market with his litany of off the field incidents. Source: PewterReport.com http://www.rotoworld.com/content/home_NFL.aspx
