Jaquan Brisker claims Mac Jones intentionally kicked him in Patriots-Bears

The New England Patriots' decision to bench Mac Jones after three offensive series wasn't the only controversy surrounding the second-year quarterback Monday night.

In the second quarter of Monday's game at Gillette Stadium, Jones scrambled for an eight-yard gain that ended with him sliding and kicking his right foot up in the air. Jones' foot made contact with the groin region of Chicago Bears safety Jaquan Brisker, who went down to the ground in pain.

Joining the "Bernstein & Holmes Show" on 670 The Score in Chicago on Wednesday, Brisker said Jones came up to him and apologized for the kick after the game.
