KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) The Chiefs released veteran wide receiver Mike Williams and safety Stevie Brown on Wednesday.

Neither had played much during training camp and the preseason.

Williams was trying to rejuvenate his career in Kansas City after his career fizzled with Tampa Bay and Buffalo. Williams had three straight 60-plus reception seasons with the Buccaneers after he was chosen in the fourth round out of Syracuse.

Brown was also trying to make a comeback. He had eight interceptions with the New York Giants in 2012, but has only appeared in 16 games over the past three seasons.
