The Facts:
Two weeks after being released by the Jets, Brien has hooked up with the Bears. The veteran kicker signed a one-year contract with the team on Thursday. Financial terms were not disclosed. The Jets cut Brien on April 28, five days after selecting Ohio State kicker Mike Nugent with their first pick in the NFL draft.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Brien came under fire after missing two potential game-winning field goals in the final two minutes of the fourth quarter in the Jets' divisional playoff overtime loss at Pittsburgh last January. Now, he'll compete with Paul Edinger and a pair of rookies for the right to handle Chicago's placement needs.
