Not landing Russell Wilson may not be the only difficult news for Chicago Bears fans this offseason.
According to Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune, the NFC North team granted permission to defensive lineman Akiem Hicks to seek a trade. This comes after the Bears released cornerback Kyle Fuller to clear $11 million in cap space.
Briggs noted Hicks, who is set to make $10.5 million in the final year of his contract in 2021, would like a raise in a new deal if he can find a trade.
