CB A.Henry Returns, Is 100% Healthy

Mac Engel, Fort Worth Star-Telegram

Perhaps the best news receiving little or no attention during Cowboys minicamp was the health of defensive back Anthony Henry.

"I'm 100 percent now," said Henry, who suffered a hamstring injury in Week 8 of the 2005 season that slowed him the rest of the way. He missed four of the team's final eight games. The injury wiped out a season that had Pro Bowl written all over it.

"I thought it was something I could just fight through," Henry said. "The most important thing is mentally; just getting over it and not having to worry about it."

Henry was signed as a free agent ostensibly to cover then-Philadelphia Eagles receiver Terrell Owens. He struggled to do it in minicamp, but he doesn't have to worry about it now.

"I'm happy; I don't have to worry about him anymore," Henry said. "It's good we picked him up."
