Rest-of-Season Projections
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Brisker has posted excellent tackle totals in his two years with the Bears, reaching triple digits in stops both times despite missing two games in each season. Otherwise, the Penn State product has averaged one interception, one fumble recovery and 2.5 sacks per campaign. Going into his third NFL season, there's little reason to think Brisker won't reach 100 tackles again. Expect another season of high-end IDP production. Read Past Outlooks
Could miss rest of 2024 season
General manager Ryan Poles relayed Sunday that Brisker (concussion) "wasn't making the progress we wanted," which is what caused the Bears to place the third-year safety on injured reserve Saturday, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Prior to being placed on IR, Brisker had already missed the Bears' previous four games due to a concussion he suffered in Week 5 against the Panthers. The 2022 second-round pick has evidently struggled to go through the league's five-step concussion protocols, and even though the earliest he could return from IR would be Week 15 against the Vikings on Monday, Dec. 16, Poles noted that the Bears are, "Going to slow...and allow[ing] [Brisker] to take his time to come back. Would love to see him back this year, but we're just going to take it one week at a time." If he is in fact sidelined for the rest of the 2024 regular season, Brisker will finish with 40 tackles (23 solo), including 1.0 sacks, two pass defenses (including one interception) and one forced fumble across five games.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
The Bears selected Brisker in the second round of the 2022 Draft, and he immediately proved to be an impact player. He was steady as a tackler, with 104 stops in 15 games. In addition, he showed excellent playmaking with four sacks and an interception. Working alongside veteran safety Eddie Jackson should allow Brisker to continue to improve and potentially begin to approach top-flight status as an IDP.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Has chance for big season
Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic identifies Brisker as a Bears player poised to take a big step forward in 2023.
ANALYSIS
A second-round pick a year ago, Brisker put together a noteworthy rookie campaign that included 104 tackles, a team-high four sacks and a forced fumble and fumble recovery apiece. However, Fishbain notes the Penn State product's size, athleticism and penchant for being around the ball combined with some improvement as a run defender could lead to Brisker parlaying the experience he garnered as a rookie into a standout second season.
