Chicago Bears safety Jaquan Brisker says Justin Fields is getting hit late, officials don't call the penalties and opponents plan the hits as part of their strategy.

00:10 >> I'm very active on that.
00:26 I'm always in their ear about that because protecting the quarterbacks in this
00:29 league is big, right?
00:30 Those guys are the league.
00:33 So it's important that we do that and we continue to do that.
00:36 If you have a guy that's a runner, and he slides down like that,
00:39 we gotta protect him.
00:40 And I wasn't happy about that first one.
00:42 And I let him know about it and I was like, it's just not the right thing to do.
00:46 So I don't think so.
00:48 The first game for sure, but not this one.
00:50 >> If it was us, they'll be throwing it.
00:53 It won't even be a reaction, they'll just throw it.
00:56 So I think they should just treat him fair.
00:59 >> He is a quarterback.
00:59 I know he's 230 and he's running a four or three.
01:04 So, but it doesn't really matter.
01:06 He's still a quarterback.
01:07 We have to protect him.
01:08 And it's disappointing.
01:11 Obviously, the other team being told to do dirty stuff after the play,
01:15 hit him like this a certain way.
01:17 It's obviously being told just by the way they've been treating him the last couple
01:20 of weeks, a lot of shots to the head.
01:22 And it's very disappointing seeing a guy like that get hit and
01:25 take hits like that.
01:27 And one of those hits, God forbid, could be something very bad.
01:31 So I think the league need to get on that and notice that it's bad.
01:37 But you just tell just from the other teams,
01:41 we don't, Coach Flutzen, he doesn't tell us to do anything like that.
01:45 But you could just tell just the way they just hit him after a play.
01:51 They just try to, you just tell how they're just trying to tug and
01:55 try to do whatever they can to get him out the game.
01:57 And it's obvious.
01:59 It's obvious.
02:00 Autumn head shots yesterday, Autumn late hits,
02:03 trying to mess with his hands and things like that, it's obvious.
02:06 So, league just has to protect the quarterback and
02:10 we're gonna protect ours at all times, so.
