The Facts:
Griese, who also drew interest from the Bengals, Dolphins and Bucs, has agreed to terms on a five-year contract that should keep him in a Bears uniform through the 2010 season, according to a source close to the player. Financial details weren't yet immediately available.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The Bears zeroed in on Griese last week during free agency and were comfortable with a medical evaluation performed on the torn knee ligaments he suffered last October. Griese is expected to supplant Kyle Orton as Rex Grossman's backup. Given Grossman's injury history, Griese also felt comfortable enough with the situation in Chicago to possibly start games.
