Williams was waived by the Bengals on Sunday.
Though some thought the Bengals found themselves a gem when they signed Williams (who was given a fifth-round grade by ESPN's Mel Kiper) as an undrafted free agent, the rookie always faced long odds of making a roster that already included Jeremy Hill, Giovani Bernard, Joe Mixon and special-teams ace Cedric Peerman. He's now free to sign elsewhere.
