Now that we’ve unclutched our pearls and wrung ourselves dry of takes on why Ja’Marr Chase shouldn’t have spit on Jalen Ramsey—this after unclutching our pearls and wringing ourselves dry of takes on why Jalen Carter shouldn’t have spit on Dak Prescott in Week 1—can we have a conversation about how ridiculous this is?
We’ve now lost two of the NFL’s best players for two critical games—Chase will miss a game against the white-hot Patriots that could effectively end the Bengals’ season a week before Joe Burrow claims he may be able to make a return to the field, and Carter did not play in the Eagles’ season-opener against the division-rival Cowboys—because of something we find relatively unpleasant but that causes no bodily harm.
