Bengals suspend Henry amid conduct policy woes
Bengals wide receiver Chris Henry has been suspended by NFL commissioner Roger Goodell for the first half of last season for repeated conduct policy violations. The team noted their failed efforts to guide his behavior and expressed regret as they move on. An agent for Henry apologized and vowed continued effort to help him. The league could suspend him again under the new policy. Cincinnati had multiple player arrests in the period. A complaint links Henry to punching Meyer and throwing a beer bottle at Meyer's car, causing a broken window.
