Every day last season, after Jaquan Brisker was sidelined with a concussion, the Chicago Bears safety told his mother, Mijohni, he was OK. Something clearly was amiss, however, as weeks of missed games turned into months and Brisker ultimately never returned to the field, missing the final 12 games after a vicious shot in an Oct. 6 victory over the Carolina Panthers. Late in the second quarter, he came down to tackle tight end Tommy Tremble after a short reception.

As the Chicago Bears take part in their second week of organized team activities at Halas Hall, could they be laying groundwork for another major addition to the roster? The Tribune’s Brad Biggs addresses that question and many more in this week’s Bears mailbag. What is the upside of lowering this year’s cap number for Joe Thuney? If they don’t use that cap space this season, wouldn’t it be better to take that cap hit now?

Tackling some issues after #Bears minicamp with @danwiederer and @sean_hammond. - Who has the most to prove on defense? - Where does the LT job stand? - And more. https://t.co/yUR2yruzgb

#Bears coach Ben Johnson mentioned DE Dom Robinson & LB Ruben Hyppolite on defense and TE Joel Wilson & RB Kyle Monangai on offense as players who impressed throughout spring action.

'My mom asked me every single day: ‘Are you OK? Are you ready?’ I told her I’m about to be playing this week. I really thought I was fine, to be honest. I mean, it was just a hard process.' The long road back from a concussion for #Bears S Jaquan Brisker. https://t.co/ne6XvbOeAM
