CINCINNATI -- Bengals safety Shawn Williams said he wasn't trying to make contact with Andrew Luck's head on the play that ultimately saw him ejected from Sunday's game.
Williams was ejected in the first quarter after being flagged for unnecessary roughness for the hit, which occurred while Luck was scrambling for a first down on third-and-7. Luck was already being pulled to the ground by Bengals defensive end Michael Johnson when Williams flew in from another direction. Although Williams said he attempted to lead with his shoulder, he made contact to Luck's helmet.
