Even with what looks like clear video evidence, Ja’Marr Chase is denying he spat on Jalen Ramsey during the Bengals vs. Steelers game on Sunday … claiming it simply didn’t happen.

The superstar Bengals receiver and Steelers corner were jawing at each other throughout the AFC North matchup in Pittsburgh … but things took a turn in the 4th quarter when Ramsey slapped Chase’s helmet and grabbed his facemask — earning a one-way ticket to the locker rooms in the process.

Viewers wondered what set Ramsey off — and thanks to an up-close camera angle, it appeared Chase was caught in 4K spitting on Ramsey.

Chase claimed Ramsey’s reaction stemmed from their nonstop heated exchanges all game … and he got under Jalen’s skin.

Ramsey — who signed with the Steelers in June — said Chase DID spit on him … and admitted he  “didn’t give a f*** bout football after that, respectfully.”

“I’m always going to be all for trash talkin’, s*** talkin’, stuff like that. I actually enjoy that part of the game, and that’s what we were doing.”

A similar incident occurred during the 2025 NFL Kickoff contest between the Dallas Cowboys and the Philadelphia Eagles … when Jalen Carter spat at Dak Prescott before the first play.

Carter was ejected from the game and handed a $57K fine for his actions … so it’ll be interesting to see if the NFL’s buying Chase’s defense.
