College career
Henry began his college career at Herkimer County Community College in 2012. In his two seasons, he helped the team win the NJCAA National Championship both seasons, including posting clean sheets in both championship matches. In 2012, he was the 2012 Regional Tournament MVP, an NSCAA Second Team All-American, NSCAA All-Region First Team, and was also named to the All-National Tournament First Team. In 2013, he was an NSCAA and NJCAA All-American in 2013, and was selected to the NSCAA All-Region First Team and the All-National Tournament Team.

Club career
Early career
In 2013 and 2014, he played with the Toronto Lynx in the Premier Development League.
In 2015, he began playing with Sigma FC in League1 Ontario. In 2017, he was named a L1O Second-Team All-Star and was named to the All-Star Game roster. In 2018, he was once again named a L1O Second Team All-Star, and was once again selected to play in the All-Star Game against the PLSQ All-Star team.
Forge FC
In February 2019, Henry signed his first professional contract with Canadian Premier League side Forge FC, joining his former Sigma coach Bobby Smyrniotis. He made his debut in the league's first ever match on April 27, 2019 against York9 FC. He helped Forge with the first ever CPL title in 2019. In 2020, he helped Forge win their second consecutive league championship and won the Golden Glove Award as the league's top goalkeeper. Forge then subsequently picked up his option for the 2021 season. In his third season, he helped Forge reach the Championship final for the third straight season, however they did not win the title, although he was a finalist for the Golden Glove Award. In 2022, he won his third CPL title in four seasons with Forge. In January 2023, Henry re-signed with Forge on a multi-year deal.
At the end of the 2023 season, once again winning the league title, he was again nominated for the Golden Glove Award, and eventually won it for the second time in his career and was also named to the CPL Best XI. He did not join the club for the beginning of their 2024 season, being excused for 'personal reasons', however, some reports indicated the absence was due to a transfer impasse between Henry and the club. There were reports that Forge rejected a transfer offer during the offseason from Memphis 901 FC of the USL Championship, which Forge denied saying they never received a formal offer. Henry did not join Forge for the 2024 season, sitting out the season, with the club working on securing another transfer for the player. In July 2024, he officially departed the club, after making 142 appearances across all competitions, capturing four league titles and two Golden Glove awards.
Memphis 901
On July 23, 2024, Henry officially departed Forge and signed a multi-year contract with Memphis 901 FC in the USL Championship. He made his debut on July 27, keeping a clean sheet, in a 1-0 victory over San Antonio FC.
