Ja'Marr Chase makes ridiculous 45-yard TD catch to extend Bengals lead over Dolphins | NFL Highlights

Ja'Marr Chase made a ridiculous 45-yard touchdown catch to extend the Cincinnati Bengals' lead over the Miami Dolphins.

Fists were flying at NFL stadiums on Sunday.

While no arrests were made at Lambeau Field for the usually hostile Bears-Packers game, emotions ran high at SoFi Stadium between winless Chargers fans and Broncos fans who stormed the away game by the tens of thousands. Meanwhile, in Miami, Dolphins fans are getting restless without a win.

A viral video circulating on social media shows Dolphins fans punching a Cincinnati fan in the upper deck at Hard Rock Stadium.

Outside of that, something ugly happened in D.C. after an ugly 27-27 tie between the Giants and Redskins. Giants fans were fighting Redskins fans, Eagles fans were punching someone, and bodies were flying as people made their way to their cars.

It wasn't all bad for fans across the league. Police responded to just 15 calls for service at the Bears-Packers game, and seven fans were ejected. During the December 2025 game between these fierce rivals, a night game, 30 police calls were made, 12 people were ejected and one person was arrested.
