Share

Two players that were brought in on a tryout basis during minicamp officially signed with the Bears on Friday.

The Bears beefed up their offensive line with tackle Cory Brandon and added depth to the secondary with cornerback Cornelius Brown.

Brandon, who stands at 6-7, 324-pounds, spent time on Tampa Bay's roster during preseason in 2011 after going undrafted out of the University of Oklahoma.

Brown, originally signed with the Bears in 2010 after playing his college football at the University of Texas-El Paso. After being waived by Chicago, Brown immediately signed with the Indianapolis Colts. During the 2010 season, he registered 16 tackles and five pass breakups in 10 games. He was released by the Colts after the 2011 preseason.

With the signings, the Bears 90-man roster stands at 89.
