The 34-year-old Briggs suffered a groin injury against the Buccaneers in week 12 and only had 35 tackles on the season up to that point.
Father time may have finally caught up with the underdog Briggs.
The seven-time Pro Bowl selection acknowledged early this month that this is probably his last season in Chicago.
Briggs and Brian Urlacher will always be remembered for being the backbone of some great Bears defenses under Lovie Smith.
