NFL Soup Injury Update: Bengals' WR Chris Henry Breaks Forearm

Bengals wide receiver Chris Henry suffered a broken forearm in Cincinnati’s victory over the Baltimore Ravens.

The troubled wideout was actually behaving quite well—on and off the field— for the Bengals this year. Before his injury he had registered 11 receptions for 216 yards and two scores this season.

This is a moderate loss to the Bengals passing offense, but considering how little Henry was actually involved through the first seven games, it won’t cripple the now 6-2 Bengals.

Fantasy Perspective : The loss of Henry takes a bit away from Cincy’s vertical game, which could hamper Carson Palmer's overall effectiveness, but this injury mostly just benefits Chad Ochocinco and Laveranues Coles. They'll be the recipients of whatever targets Henry would have seen.

Andre Caldwell should now be able to hold onto the third receiver job without worrying about sharing duties with Henry.

There is no word yet how long Henry will be out, but this is an injury that could keep him out through your fantasy playoffs, if not for the entire NFL season.
