Green Bay Packers

After going undrafted in the 2015 NFL Draft, Henry signed with the Green Bay Packers on May 8, 2015.[2] On September 5, 2015, he was released by the Packers during final team cuts.[3]

Denver Broncos

Henry was claimed off waivers by the Denver Broncos on September 6, 2015.[4] He appeared in two games in the first five weeks of the Broncos season. On October 14, 2015, Henry was released by the Broncos to make room for the signing of tight end Richard Gordon.[5]

Return to Green Bay

On October 16, 2015, Henry was signed to the Packers' practice squad,[6] where he spent the rest of his rookie season. He was re-signed by the Packers after the season ended on January 18, 2016.[7]

Enter his second season; Henry missed time during training camp due to a groin injury.[8] He later broke the index finger on his right hand in the second preseason game against the Oakland Raiders, resulting in him having to wear a club cast on his hand for the second straight year.[8] On August 30, 2016, Henry was placed on injured reserve.[9] He was waived by the Packers after reaching an injury settlement on September 1, 2016.[10]

Baltimore Ravens

Henry was signed to the Baltimore Ravens' practice squad on November 7, 2016 but was released three days later.[11]
