Brisker spent the last four years with the Chicago Bears after they drafted him in the second round of the 2022 NFL Draft.
But now, he is coming home.
Brisker is from Wilkinsburg, just outside the City of Pittsburgh, played at WPIAL powerhouse Gateway High School and grew up a Steelers fan.
Now, he is going to be putting on black and gold and playing at Acrisure Stadium for the first time ever.
"It's going to be amazing," said Brisker. "I love the fans. I love Terrible Towels. I love how passionate they are for the players, how they love Pittsburgh football just overall. And Renegade, the song you guys play. I love that. So, I can't wait to turn the fans up.
"It's so special, it's amazing. I walked in here today to the practice facility and I just got the chills. When I came off the plane, I got chills. I'm about to be a Pittsburgh Steeler, and it became reality.
"It's set in at this point, and I'm just so thankful and blessed. I know all the legends and people that came through here, all the great coaches and what it means to the city to have this team win and build on that, so it will be amazing."
Even the ride from the airport to his hotel, which was in the early morning hours, was different than other times he has come through the Ft. Pitt Tunnels and seeing the city gleaming before him.
"It was dark, but you can still see the beautiful city with the water, the stadium and obviously the bridge and things like that. It never changed. Every time you go through the tunnels you see how beautiful it is. People say it might be one of the top entrances in the world, and I agree."
Brisker grew up watching players like Troy Polamalu, going to Ben Roethlisberger and Mike Tomlin's football camps, and watching the black and gold on television just like many other kids in the city.
"My family, they're strong Pittsburgh fans and they're so happy I'm in Pittsburgh so they don't have to cheer for nobody else," said Brisker. "They said, we're putting our black and gold back on. I'm like, let's go. They're super happy and super excited and pumped so they're ready for this opportunity.
"I love football so much. I was always an intense Steelers fan, watching games on television and stuff. This is amazing."
It's likely the black and gold they will be sporting will include plenty of No. 3 Brisker jersey, the number he chose to wear this year.
And it's a number that means the world to him.
His older brother, Tale' Brisker, wore No. 3 when he played at Gateway High School, before he was tragically shot and killed in 2015.
Brisker is wearing the number to honor his memory.
"It means a lot, because ever since he passed, I always wanted to honor him by how I play, by the person I am off the field," said Brisker. "He was a great person, and he was a person who gave back. And that's always how my family is. We're the type of people who want to give back to people, whether it's in need or just anybody who needs help.
"For me to honor him, on and off the field, is always amazing. It's keeping his name alive. People will ask me why do you wear No. 3 and it's because of him, so I'm just keeping his name alive, keeping him in my presence.
"He wore No. 3 and passed it down to me and I just want to honor him by wearing that. It means a lot to me in my family, so it's huge."
