I missed that one. Can you provide a link? Not that I don't believe you, but this is all I've found so far searching:

Bears DL Akiem Hicks tight-lipped about facing ex-teammate Drew Brees

“I don’t really talk about Drew Brees,” Hicks said. “Nothing to say about him.”

Sunday marks the first time Hicks will return to the Superdome since the Saints traded him to New England in Week 4 of the 2015 season.

This weekend certainly is important to Hicks, but he isn’t saying much -- at least, publicly -- about playing against his ex-team.

“No, no [there’s no extra juice taking on the Saints],” Hicks said. “Just want to play some good football.”

Then there is this from October of 2020:

Akiem Hicks finally burying the hatchet with the Saints

“Do I appreciate how I was cast aside?” Hicks told Nathan Smith for ChicagoBears.com. “I wasn’t good enough to play for that team? No, I don’t appreciate those things. You never forget, but you can’t carry hate in your heart, you know what I’m saying? I would also say that, man, you just appreciate those moments. I wouldn’t say it loses its luster.”

Things get deleted from the internet all the time. Any idiot knows that. Well, any idiot but you. Just because you can't find it doesn't mean he didn't say it. He was pissed and said a LOT of nasty things. He even got support from Jimmy Graham at the time, but then Jimmy, who is a coward like you, deleted his statement.

Jimmy said, just so we're clear, "feel blessed u got out of there. Time to go shine big dog. All the best. Good luck.”

He promptly deleted the tweet. Cowards defending cowards. You fit right in.

Maybe you just need to troll. LOL

Because why? Because someone should prove something to him?

Guido is not the truth police here or anywhere else. This is not a one-off. If it were I'd leave him be. This is a pattern of behavior that is well documented, bud...

You said in a PM along the lines of whatever....so, whatever.

If you keep this nonsense up I'm going after you like you've decided to do after Guido. I've got thick skin for insults hurled in my direction. Bring this **** to stop or find out how you like being driven out of town.

I asked you in a PM how to block you like you suggested I do. I don't understand computers. We used punch cards in college like NASA in those old films. Yeah, I'm older than dirt and I don't have time for your personal vendettas. If you continue, then I'll make you my personal vendetta like you did with Guido if you persist. I don't like, and others posters agree, your personal attacks on other members no matter who it is. If you want this discourse on the board we'll see how you like it. This should be right up your alley with the constant bickering. Just give it a rest please for everybody's sake.

Thanks for listening. I do like you though. I think we're friends on here.

Unfortunately I can't find it either and I'm paraphrasing a little here, but I remember reading an article or a twitter post where Hicks said something along the lines of "better get 9 some protection or I'll make sure its QB2"

Hicks does not like Brees one bit apparently.

Thanks. I'll keep searching to try to find the context. I read everything I can concerning the Saints and I just couldn't recall ever coming across something like that. Could it have been a tweet by someone else attributing it to him?

By the way, here's a good video of Hicks "mic'd-up" facing Drew in the 2020 Wild Card! Check it out.
