Bears agree to 3-year deal with Weems

LAKE FOREST (AP) – The Chicago Bears have agreed to a three-year contract with special teams star Eric Weems.

Weems spent his first five seasons with Atlanta and was the NFC's special-teams selection for the Pro Bowl in 2010.

Signing Weems could help ease the loss of Pro Bowl gunner Corey Graham if he does not re-sign and it adds depth to the return game, with Devin Hester hobbled at times by injuries last season and Johnny Knox recovering from spinal surgery.
