Bears sign Brandon Meriweather

It didn’t take Brandon Meriweather long to find a new team.

Less than 24 hours after the Patriots released Meriweather, he has signed with the Bears.

The Bears announced that they’ve signed the safety to a one-year contract. No word yet on how much he’ll be paid.

Meriweather played in all 16 games for the Patriots last year, starting 13, and he’s been chosen to the Pro Bowl each of the last two seasons.

Guess they don't have much confidence in Major Wright or the injuries to Chris Conte and Craig Steltz are worse than we might actually know.

I'm guessing it's the first thing, because a lot of reports are saying Meriweather will start Week #1 alongside Chris Harris.

I'm not sure about this, I guess it's good for depth.
