Cincinnati Bengals star wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase will officially face a one-game suspension as the NFL upheld the disciplinary ruling for spitting on Steelers’ defensive back Jalen Ramsey.

Michael Signora, the NFL Senior Vice President of Football & International Communication, confirmed the punishment.

“Hearing officer Jordy Nelson, jointly appointed by the NFL and the NFLPA, has upheld the one-game suspension of Cincinnati’s Ja’Marr Chase,” Signora shared.

Chase’s appeal was reviewed by Nelson on Tuesday, locking in the penalty. He’s set to miss their next game against the Patriots. In addition, he will have to $500,000 as a fine, per Adam Schefter’s report.
