Chicago Bears rookie safety Jaquan Brisker has been a menace as the jack-of-all-trades kind of defender his team hoped he'd be when they drafted him in the second round.

Brisker is exactly the kind of player the Bears need as a foundational piece in their rebuild.

Here are some of the things he had to say to CBS sports' Matt Zahn.

"At the beginning of the season, it was a little slow, but now I feel like I'm coming along. I'm being more consistent, you know, doing my job. There's still a lot of [football] left, so I feel like I could still have mor to offer. In the beginning, trying to get my feet under me, trying to get used to my teammates, and now, I'm more comfortable around my teammates, more comfortable in the system, more comfortable with this staff, more comfortable with myself because during the preseason, I was a little injured. But now I feel like I'm healthy."

However, the Bears have not been playing well lately. When asked about the rough patch, here is what he had to say:

"I'd say we just got to put everything together. Penalties have been killing us. We've been letting teams go down there [into the red zone]. Everybody could see it. There's been a lot of big penalties that end up with touchdowns, or at least some points. So I feel like if we play more cleaner ball, and we all work together, I feel like we can be a dangerous defense. In the first half, we've been starting off well, but now we just got to finish."
