The Cincinnati Bengals released return specialist Ke'Shawn Williams ahead of their Week 4 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, according to multiple reports.

Williams, in his second season in the NFL, muffed a punt in the fourth quarter of Cincinnati's 30-27 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sept. 27. The muffed punt led to a Steelers field goal to tie the game.

Head coach Zac Taylor and special teams coordinator Darrin Simmons were non-commital on whether Williams would remain with the team after Sunday.

Cincinnati also is reportedly bringing back wide receiver Mitchell Tinsley. Tinsley, who played last season for the Bengals, was on the Houston Texans practice squad.
