Overview
- Field-level footage from FOX19’s Austin Briski shows Chase spitting on Ramsey late in the fourth quarter after officials said they hadn’t seen it.
- Ramsey was ejected for punching Chase during the ensuing altercation, while Chase remained in the game.
- The suspension sidelines Cincinnati’s top receiver for Week 12 vs. the Patriots unless an appeal overturns the decision.
- The NFL pointed to its earlier handling of Jalen Carter’s spitting case as precedent for a one-game punishment.
- Under the CBA, Chase can appeal; if the ban stands, he forfeits at least one game check—about $448,333 in base salary, according to the AP.
