Hicks was waived by the Packers on Tuesday, Wes Hodkiewicz of the team's official website reports.
Hicks inked a reserve/future contract with Green Bay in January, reeling in five catches for 31 yards during the team's three preseason contests. The wide receiver will now be placed on waivers, and if he goes unclaimed, it's possible he sticks around with the Packers' practice squad.
