The Lions spent some time on Thursday working out a former enemy, Bears CB Nathan Vasher.
Former Bears cornerback Nathan Vasher had a tryout Thursday with the Detroit Lions, according to an NFL source. Vasher was one of the final cuts by the San Diego Chargers, who elected to go with younger players that could help on special teams. Detroit is very thin at cornerback and Vasher could help them. Because Vashser is a vested veteran the Lions may wait until next week to sign him. If Vasher were to sign before Sunday’s game, his salary for the 2010 season would be guaranteed.
