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.
Out of an abundance of caution; we selected MAX Autobrakes since ACARS returned a 'Flight Not Found' error when Landing Data was requested.
B737 flight crew reported a bird strike on climbout that resulted in momentary power reduction.  After an overweight landing; the crew encountered locked brakes.
