Williams left a rehab facility in Texas on Monday, just a few days after entering, 10TV News reported.
He entered the facility with the help of talk show host Dr. Phil McGraw to receive treatment for drug and alcohol addiction.
Williams' manager told 10TV News that he had some "work" lined up for his client in Los Angeles.

Williams' mother, with whom he reunited in New York shortly after being discovered, said she hopes her son decides to return to rehab.
She told People Magazine that her son thinks he can beat his drug and alcohol addictions on his own, but she worries that he will not stay sober without professional help.
Williams' manager also said that he will not appear on the Dr. Phil show again, because Williams did not like the way the talk show host quote "spun" the show.
On Monday, McGraw released a statement that said, "Ted was given the chance to voluntarily enter a drug rehabilitation facility in order to help him in dealing with his dependency on drugs and alcohol. In that it is voluntary, the decision to remain in treatment is Ted's to make. We certainly hope that he continues his commitment to sobriety, and we will continue to help and support him in any way that we can. We wish him well."
On Jan. 12, Williams' management company, Battle Plan Promotions, issued a news release that said all events had been canceled to allow him time to "decompress, rest and get the professional help that he needs."
"After consulting with several psychologists and doctors we all agree that (it's) time to allow private healing to take place. Ted would like to express his sincere thanks for all the love and support he has received," the news release said.
Williams made national headlines after a video appeared on the Columbus Dispatch Web site about him.
The clip that was filmed by Columbus Dispatch videographer Doral Chenoweth III, showed Williams standing near the ramp from Hudson Street and Interstate 71, demonstrating his voice.
A sign he held read, "I'm an ex-radio announcer who has fallen on hard times."
