Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase was penalised for 'verbal abuse' against a game official during his team's 26-25 loss against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday (Sep 15).

The 15-yard penalty pegged the Bengals back on their drive in the final quarter which eventually resulted in a field goal. Cincinnati were leading 25-23 after the field goal with 9:28 left in the final quarter and went on to loss the game.

The incident happened after Chase believed he had been tackled with hip-drop by Chiefs cornerback Trent McDuffie on the third play of the Bengals' drive. The hip-drop has been banned by the National Football League (NFL) because of the injury risk.

Referee Alex Kemp threw the flag after the interaction with Chase and informed in the pool report that 'abusive language' led to the penalty on Chase.

"The simple answer is, profanity used by grown men versus direct, personal abusive language towards a game official," Kemp said on difference between disagreement and abuse. "That's the line. When that line gets crossed, we simply can't let that happen in pro football."

Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow was seen restraining Chase after the play and before the flag was thrown.

"Just trying to deescalate the situation," Burrow said. "I'm not entirely sure what was said or who threw the flag."

The loss makes this fifth 0-2 start for the Bengals in the last six seasons.

The Sunday Night game started with both the teams scoring three points each in the first quarter before the Bengals ran away with 13 points in the second one.

The Chiefs were trailing by six points at the half-time after scoring just seven points in the second quarter.

The third quarter went neck-to-neck with the Bengals scoring six points and the Chiefs managing another seven.

Come last quarter, the Chiefs managed nine points while Cincinnati were stopped at three the Super Bowl defending champs walked away with a win.

'Profanity used by...,' Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase penalised for 'abusive language' in loss vs Chiefs

The banter between the Cincinnati Bengals and Kansas City Chiefs over Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase's 'Pat Who' comment doesn't seem to be subsiding. With almost 10 days since Kansas City quarterback Patrick Mahomes' epic reply to Chase, Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has now jumped in. The TE, on the 'New Heights' podcast, co-hosted with his brother Jason Kelce, asked Chase to refrain from dissing Mahomes.

"It is what it is, dog. Who doesn't love some good locker room banter, man?" said Travis Kelce. "Shoutout to Ja'Marr Chase for holding it down for his QB, but don't you ever disrespect Pat Mahomes, now. If you wanna talk your s---, talk your s---, pimp. Just better back it up."

"I thought it was a little bold," Kelce said. "(Mahomes) is a two-time league MVP, two-time Super Bowl MVP. To say 'Pat who?' is like I don't know," he added.

Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce also said that he found Chase's comments 'disrespectful.'&nbsp;

"Pat didn't like it. Mahomes tweeted a picture of himself at the Chiefs' ring ceremony (June 15) -- glad you guys had fun doing that -- wearing his two Super Bowl rings with the declaration 'That's Who,'" said Jason on the podcast.

The trade of words started after Chase picked up his QB Joe Burrow as the best NFL QB and understandably so. The WR, however, got cheeky when informed that Burrow had chosen Mahomes as the best QB and replied with "Pat Who?"

Mahomes, who took the Chiefs to Super Bowl victory in 2023, the franchise's second in four years, went one up and tweeted his picture with two Super Bowl rings with a caption, "That's Who."

Notably, the Chiefs got their first win against the Bengals in the last season when they avenged their 2021 AFC Championship game defeat in the conference final. Previous to 2022 NFL season, the Bengals had won three straight games against the Kansas City Chiefs.
