The Chicago Bears selected Briggs in the third round (68th overall) of the 2003 NFL draft. Briggs was the 13th linebacker drafted in 2003.[7]

On July 25, 2003, the Bears signed Briggs to a four-year, $2.06 million contract that includes a signing bonus of $690,000.[8] Throughout training camp, Briggs competed to be a starting outside linebacker against veteran Bryan Knight.[9] Head coach Dick Jauron named Briggs a backup outside linebacker to start his rookie season, behind Bryan Knight and Warrick Holdman.

He made his professional regular season debut during the Chicago Bears' season-opener at the San Francisco 49ers and made one solo tackle as they lost 49–7. On October 5, 2003, Briggs earned his first career start and recorded one solo tackle during a 24–21 win against the Oakland Raiders in Week 4.[10] In Week 9, Briggs collected a season-high 11 combined tackles (seven solo) during a 12–10 loss at the Detroit Lions. On December 7, 2003, Briggs recorded nine combined tackles (seven solo), deflected two passes, and intercepted a pass which he returned for the first touchdown of his career during a 34–21 loss at the Green Bay Packers in Week 13.

In 2004, he made 126 tackles and was elected as a second alternate to the Pro Bowl.

In 2005, Briggs was selected to represent the National Football Conference in the 2006 Pro Bowl.

Briggs engaged the Bears for a contract extension prior to the 2006 NFL season. After the two sides reached an impasse, Briggs refused to attend the team's voluntary workouts and missed part of training camp. He was subsequently demoted in favor of Leon Joe but earned back his starting position.[13] During the season, Briggs was a major contributor to the Bears' defense that reached Super Bowl XLI. He recorded two interceptions, four forced fumbles, two interceptions, one sack, and a career high 134 total tackles.[14] Briggs was selected to play in the 2007 Pro Bowl, but declined the invitation because of an injured foot.[15]

Briggs and the Bears failed to reach a long-term contract extension as the 2007 season approached. The Bears instead placed a franchise tag on Briggs, which guaranteed him $7.206 million for the next season.[16] Briggs was dissatisfied with the move, commenting, "I am now prepared to sit out the year if the Bears don't trade me or release me, I've played my last snap for them. I'll never play another down for Chicago again."[17] The Washington Redskins inquired about acquiring Briggs and Chicago's 31st overall pick in the 2007 NFL draft for Washington's 6th overall pick.[14] The trade talks faltered and Bears refused to release Briggs.[18] He skipped the team's voluntary and mandatory spring training camp sessions out of protest.[19][20] Despite his comments, Briggs played for the Bears during the 2007 season, where he accrued 140 total tackles and earned his third Pro Bowl selection.[21]

The Bears re-signed Briggs to a six-year, $36 million contract on March 1, 2008.[21] He was ranked 92nd by his fellow players on the NFL Top 100 Players of 2011.[22]

Briggs in November 2009

On September 2, 2011, Briggs and his agent, Drew Rosenhaus, formally asked the Bears organization for a trade, with three years left on his six-year contract.[23] The request came after Briggs asked the Bears for a raise.[24]

Briggs made the 2012 Pro Bowl team, but was unable to play due to an ankle injury.[25]

On April 11, 2012, Briggs was given a one-year extension, extended his contract through 2014.[26] In week 7 of 2013 against the Washington Redskins, Briggs suffered a fracture in his shoulder.[27] He rejoined the Bears in week 16, a 54–11 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.[28]

Briggs recorded 24 tackles and one interception during the 2014 NFL season. After starting the season as the Bears' weak-side linebacker, Briggs was injured during week 5 and missed three games. He commented that his future with the team was in jeopardy, as he was in the final year of his contract.[29] Briggs returned to play four more games, but injured his groin muscle during a week 13 game against the Detroit Lions. The Bears subsequently placed Briggs on their injury reserve list.[30]

Briggs became a free agent but remained unsigned through the offseason. He announced his retirement on September 2, 2015.[31]
