Brown, who has played all of his eight NFL seasons for the Chicago Bears, visited the Saints’ suburban training headquarters on Tuesday and Wednesday, team spokesman Greg Bensel said. Financial terms of his new deal with the Saints were not disclosed. “We’re excited to welcome Alex to New Orleans,†Saints general manager Mickey Loomis said. “He has been a productive player in this league for quite a while and we feel fortunate to add him to our team and are eager to fit him into our defense.†Source: Yahoo Sports
