The U.S. Attorney’s Office has arrested former Broncos running back Travis Henry on cocaine-distribution charges, and the agent in the case makes some damning accusations, including that Henry was threatening to kill his drug runner if he didn’t recoup $40,000 that he was allegedly owed.
If you’re wondering why a former NFL millionaire is risking his life over a few keys of coke, recall that Henry has reportedly fathered nine children from nine different women. That’s a lot of child support.
In an odd bit of irony, Henry’s partner-in-crime was arrested without incident. Henry took off running, but was unable to escape his pursuers. Some things never change.

Will you step up to support Westword this year?
At Westword, we’re small and scrappy — and we make the most of every dollar from our supporters. Right now, we’re $23,000 away from reaching our December 31 goal of $50,000. If you’ve ever learned something new, stayed informed, or felt more connected because of Westword, now’s the time to give back.
