Former NBA player Orlando Woolridge arrested for theft
SAN DIEGO, March 29 (UPI) -- The San Diego Chargers have signed free-agent defensive back Nathan Vasher to a two-year contract, the team said Monday.
Vasher, 28, is a veteran of six NFL seasons with the Bears (2004-09), for whom he started 46 of his 73 career NFL games, recording 19 interceptions -- including eight in 2005 when he was voted to the NFC Pro Bowl team.
"In Nathan Vasher, we're adding a proven NFL player with experience in the league," said Chargers General Manager A.J. Smith. "Having played in Chicago under Chargers defensive coordinator Ron Rivera (2004-06) and secondary coach Steve Wilks (2006-08) is an added bonus."
Last year Vasher played in 15 games for the Bears, making 15 tackles and picking off one pass. In his only game against the Chargers -- the 2007 season opener in San Diego -- he notched a pair tackles and a quarterback sack, the team's Web site said.
