The Bears have already ruled S Jaquan Brisker out for Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London. He didn't travel with the team after suffering a concussion in the Week 5 win over Carolina. Brisker passed a concussion check during that game and returned but then reported symptoms Monday.

HC Matt Eberflus says S Elijah Hicks will start in Brisker's place against the Jaguars, who have been near-neutral as a scoring matchup for DBs so far.

Hicks makes for a fine fill-in option if you regularly start Brisker. He lands in DB2 territory of our updated Week 6 rankings.

Chicago gets a Week 7 bye, so Brisker should be ready for the next game.
