The Cincinnati Bengals have signed seventh-round pick WR Freddie Brown, Scout.com has confirmed. According to a league source, it's a four-year deal worth $1.788 million which includes a signing bonus of a little more than $37,588.

Brown (6-4, 213) helped lead Utah to unbeaten (13-0) season in 2007, with team-best totals of 77 catches and 900 yards, and he scored seven TDs. He starred in Utah’s Sugar Bowl win over Alabama, with 12 catches for 125 yards. He played four seasons (2005-08) at Utah, seeing action in 42 games.

The former University of Utah receiver figures to have a chance to push for the team's fifth or sixth receiver job this season, but a more likely destination is on their practice squad.
