07/15/2009 - Billings, MT (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Former NFL running back Travis Henry was sentenced Wednesday to three years in prison stemming from federal cocaine trafficking charges last October.

Henry was arrested in October after a multi-kilogram cocaine transaction that occurred in Centennial, Colorado. He was later found to have financed a drug ring that moved cocaine from Billings, Montana to Colorado and later pled guilty to a single count of trafficking cocaine.

District of Montana Chief U.S. District Judge Richard Cebull handed down a three-year sentence to a federal prison in Florida and five years probation, according to the Billings Gazette. He was facing a possible 10-year sentence.

The 30-year-old Henry was released by the Denver Broncos prior to the 2008 season after rushing for 691 yards and four touchdowns over 12 games in 2007.

Over parts of seven NFL seasons, with stints in Buffalo, Tennessee and Denver, the 2002 Pro Bowl selection rushed for 6,086 yards and 38 touchdowns.
