Re: Chris Henry to work out today

Well, it's not uncommon to work out a veteran during the week. And especially with the Sherman Smith connection this makes sense.

If he is signed, and is activated, then it wouldn't surprise me to see him be the primary kick returner and possibly 3rd down back. He'll take touches away from Rock and Betts. That is if we sign him.

Henry's success has come from his great NFL combine in 2007. Since then he's shown to be a pretty freakish athlete but not the best running back out there.

IF we were to sign him as our primary kick returner you don't think that would sit too well with the Rock?

Because we needed a backup to the backup (Mason) of our backup running back (Betts).

Now it looks like we need a backup to the backup (Alridge) of the backup (Mason) to our backup (Betts).

Either that or we have a stable full of backup running backs but none of them are worth a shit in the coaches' eyes.

Maybe he was once a punter. Not sure how you could actually take any more playing time away from Betts.
