DE Brown re-ups with Chicago: Chicago gave defensive end Alex Brown a two-year contract extension on Monday, keeping him off the proverbial trade block. Brown, who had two years left on his contract, wasn't thrilled when the coaches handed Mark Anderson the starting job at right defensive end in training camp. Brown wound up with 58 tackles and 4 1/2 sacks last season after 71 and seven in 2006. Anderson struggled against the run, and injuries and poor execution left a once-dominant defense vulnerable.
