The incident was caught on video by Austin Briski of Fox 19 Cincinnati and went viral shortly after the game.
Ramsey retaliated to the spit by grabbing Chase’s facemask with his left hand and then throwing a punch with his right. Ramsey was ejected as a result.
After the game, Ramsey accused Chase of spitting on him .
