Jeff Reed was offered a deal by the Bengals following his surprising release by the Steelers this week, but the kicker turned down the bid. "We had three calls and two offers," agent Don Henderson said. "But we're not going to kick this weekend." "I hate to see Jeff Reed leave under the circumstances in the middle of the season," said wide receiver Antwaan Randle El. "I'm sure something other than just kicking had to be involved in that deal."
