All we do know, is that there are 3 small children that have lost a daddy right at Christmas. The 2 youngest will probably never remember him. I am keeping them in my prayers. No matter what he did in the past,Chris Henry was trying to turn his life around. God bless him and his family. RIP #15.”

JohnnynNicci says, “Rest in Peace Chris. My condolences are with the family at this time of a tragic loss. He will be missed on and off the field. You were a shining star who at times had a little dullness. Your talent will never be forgotten and may all the angels be yelling “WHO-DEY” as you enter the gates of heaven.”

And RealityTime posted, “Chris Henry sadly died by doing what he was infamous for: Acting out in anger and using poor judgment that shows he hadn’t in fact “learned his lesson” or “better himself”. He was an immensely talented individual who will be missed by Bengals’ fans. I will keep his children in mind in my prayers.”
