"Bengals' Henry must serve jail time after failed drug test ESPN.com news services Updated: May 21, 2007, 12:52 PM ET Suspended Bengals receiver Chris Henry failed a court-ordered drug test and will have to serve 88 days in jail. Kenton County (Kentucky) Attorney Garry Edmondson said that Henry tested positive for opiates and he will be forced to serve jail time. Henry's failed drug test was first reported by WKRC-TV in Cincinnati. Henry is on probation in Florida. It's unclear whether the reported drug test results will force him to serve jail time there. The Bengals told ESPN's Bob Holtzman that they expect to release a statement regarding Henry later Monday. Henry, who has been arrested four times since December 2005, has been suspended for the first eight games of next season for violating the NFL's conduct policies. He spent two days in jail last January after pleading guilty to letting minors drink alcohol in a hotel room he had rented. Henry received traffic tickets on March 25 for driving with a suspended license, failing to use his turn signal and a seat belt violation. He was allowed to go into a license intervention program to settle the charges. Henry is permitted to work out at the Bengals' facilities in the offseason and participate in training camp, including preseason games. He won't be allowed to practice with the team when the regular season begins. He will be reinstated after the eighth game if he stays out of trouble. "I must emphasize to you that this is your last opportunity to salvage your NFL career," NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell wrote Henry when he suspended him. "I urge you to take full advantage of the resources available to support you in that effort." ESPN.com's John Clayton and The Associated Press contributed to this report."

WAY TO GO DUMBASS

lol at the bengals...AGAIN

5/21/2007 1:11:59 PM

Lifetime ban?????

5/21/2007 1:13:40 PM

quite possibly

Goodell specifically said "this is your last opportunity to salvage your NFL career" after he suspended him for letting minors drink in the hotel room.

and now he goes and fails a drug test....for OPIATES?

5/21/2007 1:16:37 PM

he could test pos. for opiates for many things
hell, if he eats a lot of poppy seed anything that can give a false positive

5/21/2007 1:17:29 PM

there is always that possibility

but his prior history won't help that claim, that's for sure

5/21/2007 1:19:09 PM

oxycontin.

5/21/2007 1:19:42 PM

Couldn't get the whizzinator?

5/21/2007 1:24:00 PM

is this going to be the first permanent ban in NFL history?

5/21/2007 1:30:40 PM

Anytime someone fails a drug test for opiates, you have to wonder if the person just had poppy seed muffins/whatever. I mean, seriously, do people still use opiates?

And unlike what some people think, poppy seed food will make you fail a drug test.

5/21/2007 1:33:23 PM

^Wouldn't you hear about these kind of suspensions all the time then? Given this guy's track record, I'm not buying that excuse.

5/21/2007 1:36:56 PM

well jim rome reporting that the DA is backtracking and saying that Henry has not failed any drug tests

the DA doesnt know how the other story leaked but appt. either someone fucked up and its not true or its a cover up for the bengals

5/21/2007 1:46:47 PM

Blasting a few oxy would make you fail a drug test. I know plenty of people who do that shit, so no, it's not that uncommon

5/21/2007 1:48:16 PM

the DA is saying that the first test came back negative and are waiting on results from second test

now Henry's agent is denying any positives

5/21/2007 1:52:41 PM

throw away the key for this fucking loser

5/21/2007 2:05:10 PM

I pray it was a mistake and a false positive....cause it it is true, then he is a dumb ass and can kiss NFL good bye...

Until I hear more news, I am going to let it slide.

odds she made up the story about hitting herself in the eye with her own phone:
10:1
odds she is getting payed to cover up something due to recent NFL conduct policy:
100:1

5/21/2007 2:30:33 PM

if any of you think he ate a certain kind of bagel or roll with poppy seeds on it instead of him ingesting either opium/codeine/morphine/heroin, i hope you are on my jury if i ever go to trial because you're dumb

5/21/2007 4:41:16 PM

dumb you say
http://www.snopes.com/medical/drugs/poppyseed.asp

5/21/2007 4:42:30 PM

but we're talking about chris henry

henry, who basically sets NFL records for most arrests...was he more likely to have popped some pills or smoked a blunt with opium on it...or did he accidentally eat a half dozen bagels covered in poppy seeds?

"Suspended Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Chris Henry has passed his drug screenings, a Kentucky prosecutor and an attorney for the player said Wednesday. "There were no drugs found in his system," said attorney Robert Lotz, who received the final test results at his office in nearby Covington, Ky. Rob Sanders, the Commonwealth's Attorney for Kenton County, Ky., confirmed that lab analysis of Henry's drug tests came back negative. "He's been tested and cleared twice," Sanders said "

This isn't high school, these are adults, and the coaching has nothing to do with off-field incidents like this. It was bad drafting, the Bengals drafted a lot of players that would have gone rounds earlier if they didn't have character red flags, and now they're paying for it. At least they didn't make the same mistake this year. You're right though.. "Foxy" would keep his players away from the opiates, they might interfere with the steroids.

5/26/2007 12:09:54 AM

Maybe this was just poppy seed muffins & a false positive?

5/26/2007 12:30:51 AM

^^that is the same as saying 10 black people got arrested last year....just b/c a couple fuck up doesnt mean the whole team is a fuck up

5/26/2007 12:42:30 AM

What do Darrell Reid, Lionel Gates, Brandon Marshall, D'Anthony Batiste, Gerald Senabaugh, Joey Porter, Jerramy Stevens, Charles Shearon, Deshea Townshend, Dominique Byrd, Jonathan Joseph, Dominic Rhodes, Jonathan Babineaux, Ryan Krause, and DeDe Dorsey have in common? They are all NFL players that were arrested in the first 3 months of 2007. JoJo is the only Bengal on the list. 2006 was the year of Bengal arrests, but we are now in a year of balanced NFL-wide lawbreaking.

^^^^ Don't believe everything you read, especially ESPN. No one is an idiot for pointing out the article, but I think believing the ***prosecution*** without proof is naive.
