Chris Henry Children: Did Chris Henry Have Kids?

Yes, Chris Henry is survived by three adorable children; Chris Henry Jr, DeMarcus Henry, and Seini Henry.

Chris Henry was an American football wide receiver who played five seasons in the National Football League for the Cincinnati Bengals. He played college football at West Virginia and was drafted by the Bengals in the third round of the 2005 NFL Draft.

Henry was born to Carolyn Lee and David Henry in Belle Chasse, Louisiana. He attended Belle Chasse High School where he was named New Orleans small schools offensive player of the year during his senior year.

He enrolled at West Virginia University in 2002, spending his first season as a redshirt. In 2003, he earned Big East Conference freshman of the year and All-Big East second-team honors for catching 41 passes and gaining 1,006 yards, and scoring 10 touchdowns.

Henry was the third player in Mountaineers’ history to average more than twenty yards per catch for his career. His 1,878 career receiving yards is the eighth most in school history, while his 93 receptions are the 14th most.

On April 7, 2008, ESPN radio analyst and former player Michael Irvin said he took a phone call from Henry, discussing “cleaning up his act”, much like Irvin encouraged Adam “Pacman” Jones to do.

Henry and Jones were teammates at West Virginia, and both served NFL suspensions imposed by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell during the 2007 NFL season.

He finished the 2008 season with 19 receptions for 220 yards and two touchdowns. He was placed on injured reserve in November 2009, after suffering a broken forearm while making a 20-yard reception against the Baltimore Ravens.

On December 17, 2009, Charlotte police announced that Henry had died at 6:36 a.m. ET at Carolinas Medical Center from the injuries sustained in the domestic dispute. Two days later, on December 19, police confirmed that Henry died of blunt-force trauma to the head.
