"I was fortunate to play many years at this level with a great organization and unbelievable teammates," said Hejduk in a statement. CINCINNATI -- After sticking with kicker Mike Nugent during the worst slump of his 12-year career, the Bengals gave up on him Tuesday and acquired former Steelers kicker Randy Bullock off waivers.Nugent was 23 of 29 on field-goal attempts and missed five of his past nine extra-point tries. He missed an extra point -- caused partly by a bad snap -- and a 36-yard field goal during a 23-10 win in snowy Cleveland on Sunday. He also made a 44-yard field goal.As Nugents missed kicks added up, coach Marvin Lewis supported him. He said the team was confident Nugent could fix his problems and become reliable again. The misses in Cleveland -- and Bullocks availability -- prompted a change of heart.Mike is a tremendous teammate and has been an integral part of the Bengals for seven seasons, Lewis said in a statement on the players day off. This was a difficult decision, but one we felt was in the best interest of the football team moving forward.Bullock was waived by the Steelers on Monday with kickker Chris Boswell back from an injury.
