Packers’ Nixon is tired of listening to ‘annoying’ Deebo, 49ers originally appeared in NBC Sports Bay Area
It’s safe to say that the Green Bay Packers are eager for a rematch against the 49ers.
San Francisco will travel to Green Bay in Week 12 of the 2024 NFL season for the first meeting between the two teams since the 49ers triumphant victory over Packers in the NFC divisional playoff round last season.
Packers All-Pro cornerback Keisean Nixon joined Kay Adams on “Up & Adams” Wednesday morning, where he was asked if he was looking forward to the rematch with San Francisco more than the playoff matchup. Week 1 of Green Bay against the Philadelphia Eagles in Brazil.
“Oh yeah, sure. I’ve been hearing that from Deebo [Samuel] and Deommodore Lenoir all summer, so I’m tired of listening to them,” Nixon told Adams. “They need to come to Lambeau and see us.”
“Deebo is annoying… He likes Facetime, he wants to talk crazy to your face… he couldn’t talk crazy in the other game, we kicked him out.”
This isn’t the first time Nixon has thrown shade the 49ers’ path. Last month, the Packers corner apparently referred to San Francisco as the Green Bay team that “broke free” in the playoffs, which caused a heated back and forth with Lenoir on social media.
Samuel, however, is friends with Nixon after the two were teammates at the University of South Carolina in 2017 and 2018.
The two exchanged friendlies Wednesday on X, formerly known as Twitter.
haha they try to stir the pot but they don’t know it’s a fr family!!!!!

“We played in college together, so that’s my boy,” Nixon said of Samuel.
Week 12 can’t come soon enough.
