Jaquan Brisker’s been one of the brighter rookies in the NFL this season. The young safety has acted as a stabilizing force for a promising Chicago secondary. He seems to be so rock-solid and balanced all around, in fact, that Brisker can persevere despite accidental “injuries.”
As Brisker’s Bears took on the Patriots (-8.5) Monday, he was involved in a key play with Mac Jones. When the New England signal caller took off on a scramble, Brisker was there waiting to tackle him. Naturally, Jones slid, and, you know, had his foot up right where Brisker was standing and waiting.
