Ja'Marr Chase On Carlton Davis Matchup: 'I Didn't Get No Calls'

The Tampa Bay cornerback held Chase to one of his lowest statistical outputs of the season.

CINCINNATI — Tampa Bay Buccaneers cornerback Carlton Davis got a lot of praise for his work on Ja'Marr Chase Sunday, but Chase saw it a bit differently in the 34-23 win.

"Anybody all day," Chase said about Davis playing him as well as any Bucs' cover man. "Hell, a whole bunch of holdings, but I didn't get no calls. ... I ain't get enough."

Chase ended up with 7 catches for 60 yards and a score, but it took 13 targets to get there. Davis was the biggest reason why covering him on eight of those throws. According to NextGen Stats, he allowed just 3 catches for 32 yards and nabbed the tipped interception.

Davis forced the most incompletions in a game this season on passes from Joe Burrow to Chase. It was one of just three games since August that Chase hasn't hit 10-plus yards per catch.

The Enquirer's Kareem Elgazzar got a photo of Davis committing an uncalled facemask late in the fourth quarter. That was one of a few instances where Davis got away with excessive contact.

"Nah," Chase said to our James Rapien when he asked if Chase would shed light on his conversations with officials about Davis holding him. "Next question, hell nah."
