Narrative:
Climbing out of 8000 ft had a bird strike to the right engine. N1 on the right engine had a momentary drop of 10%. Then came back to normal. Very strong dead bird smell in cabin. We [returned] and landed (overweight landing). Taxied off the runway and fire trucks pulled up and said there was no damage. We asked to taxi back to a gate. Aircraft would not move; brakes were locked. Vans were sent out and passengers deplaned via air stairs.
