GREEN BAY, Wis. � The Green Bay Packers have signed former Denver Broncos cornerback Josh Bell.

The Packers are lacking depth at cornerback after Al Harris� season-ending knee injury. Bell played in nine games, including five starts, for the Broncos last season.
A 5-foot-11, 177-pound second-year player, Bell signed with San Diego as an undrafted free agent out of Baylor and spent the 2008 preseason with the Chargers. He later joined the Broncos� practice squad and was signed to the active roster. Denver cut him before the start of this season.
The Packers play at Detroit on Thursday.
