Other coaches notice Henry, `Pacman'

PHOENIX -- Off-field legal problems of NFL players are noticed league-wide by other coaches and officials. Count Seattle Seahawks coach Mike Holmgren among them.

Holmgren, speaking to reporters this morning at the NFC coaches' breakfast, took note of Henry's latest incident -- his traffic stop last week in Over-the-Rhine that involved failure to use his right turn signal and driving without a safety belt.

"You get the chart. There have been 45 arrests or 45 incidents in the last three years," Holmgren said. "Well, one of those is this seatbelt deal. So you have a seatbelt thing. Then you have Pacman Jones. And that's 43 and 44. You can't just lump them all together."

Henry was arrested four times between December 2005 and June 2006. Jones, Henry's college teammate at West Virginia and a Tennessee Titans cornerback, has had 10 encounters with police since he was drafted in April 2005.

Whoa... I didn't know Henry's traffic stop was in OTR. What in the world was he doing down there?

I mean, when a oft-convicted millionaire is running around in the worst neighborhood in the city, it makes you wonder...
