The Bears cut defensive end Tanoh Kpassagnon for the second time in five days Tuesday.
The 31-year-old was released from the 53-man roster Friday and added to the practice squad Saturday.
He played at least one-fifth of the Bears’ defensive snaps in each of the team’s first four games but hasn’t appeared since. He had 32 snaps against the Cowboys, a season-high.
He was made expendable when the Bears decided to move second-round defensive tackle Shemar Turner to defensive end to bolster their run defense. Kpassagnon’s departure also clears a roster spot for the Bears to move defensive end Austin Booker off injured reserve by Sunday’s game against the Ravens, should they so choose. Booker began practicing Oct. 7, opening a 21-day window for him to return to game action. He hurt his knee this offseason after posting a league-high four sacks.
Monday, coach Ben Johnson said Booker was “progressing along nicely — and I think he’s going to be able to help us.”
Aikman, who’s a fan of Williams and how he plays, said he hasn’t lost any sleep over the reaction from the Bears and on social media.

Coach Ben Johnson set a target of 70% for Williams, but he’s well below that and has trended in the wrong direction the last three games.

The Bears have 15 takeaways in their last four games, their most in a four-game span of a season in 14 years and the most in the NFL since the Broncos did it two years ago.
