Chicago Bears safety Jaquan Brisker doesn’t come across as someone fearing his next concussion. Being on the field this summer is a good start.

With the third practice of Chicago Bears training camp in the books, there is a lot of buzz about the team under first-year head coach Ben Johnson and the high expectations for 2025.

Chicago Sun-Times beat reporter Patrick Finley emphasized the intensity and urgency with which Johnson coaches.
