Jalen Ramsey was fined over $14K by the NFL for unsportsmanlike conduct … punishment for the star cornerback hitting Ja’Marr Chase after the star wideout spat on him in the course of the Steelers-Bengals sport.
A number of NFL insiders broke the information Saturday morning, reporting the league workplace slapped 31-year-old Ramsey with a $14,491 high-quality for the week 11 incident.
It is unclear whether or not Ramsey, who’s on a 4-year, $84.7 million deal, will enchantment.
The spit and fisticuffs that adopted have been one of many greatest tales in soccer this week.
Ramsey was flagged and tossed from the November sixteenth sport with about 13 minutes left within the 4th quarter after the All-Professional DB hit Chase twice and grabbed his facemask.
Nonetheless, shortly after the incident, video clearly confirmed 25-year-old Chase spitting on Ramsey earlier than he retaliated.

The disrespectful act modified how many individuals seen the scenario, with most saying Ramsey’s actions have been justified.
Not even Steelers coach Mike Tomlin might fault Jalen for his response (and coaches HATE penalties).
“I have no message if someone spits in your face. Do what comes natural,” the longtime Pittsburgh HC informed media.
Sadly for Ramsey, it appears the NFL wasn’t thrilled with how he dealt with the scenario — thus the high-quality.
Regardless of JR’s checking account taking a little bit of successful, Chase — who denied spitting, regardless of clear proof on the contrary — got here out of the scenario considerably worse.
Not solely did his Bengals get dominated, 34-12 … however the NFL suspended him for this week’s sport, which can price him round $500K.
