Ja'Marr Chase's One-Game Suspension Upheld, Will Miss Patriots Game
- The NFL on Tuesday upheld Ja'Marr Chase's suspension, ruling him out of the Nov. 23 Patriots game at Paycor Stadium.
- During the fourth quarter, Chase appeared to spit on Pittsburgh Steelers defensive back Jalen Ramsey, and the NFL disciplined him under its sportsmanship rule despite Chase denying the act.
- According to ESPN, Chase will forfeit his weekly paycheck of $448,333 and an active-roster bonus of more than $58,000, totaling $507,156, after his appeal was denied.
- Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said he knows Chase made a mistake but will continue to stand with his star wideout, whose absence removes a key Bengals offense option after three catches.
- Historically, Chase has had prior on-field incidents, including grabbing a mouthpiece and making gestures in 2022, which provide context for league discipline.
