Bears work out former Illini RB Mikel Leshoure.
Leshoure hasn\'t found much traction since the Lions released him earlier this year. He\'s nothing more than a backup running back at this point in his career.
Former Lions Mikel Leshoure among RBs working out for Broncos on Tuesday.
Boy, you know there\'s concern for Montee Ball and an air of desperation when the Broncos are kicking the tires on Leshoure. He washed out with the Lions after a pair of failed seasons and doesn\'t appear to be joining anyone regularly anytime soon.
Mikel Leshoure is scheduled to visit the Indianapolis Colts.
Leshoure was one of the final roster cuts made by the Lions. He was the Lions 2nd round pick in 2011 but missed all of his rookie year due to injury. He returned in 2012 playing in 14 games rushing for 798 and nine touchdowns.
Lions have informed RB Mikel Leshoure he's being waived.
Earlier in the summer, the staff was praising Leshoure and talking about an increased workload. But he was completely outplayed by Theo Reddick and now will have to hope some other team opts to take a chance on him.
