Ja’Marr Chase brought his big-play ability to the Super Bowl when the Cincinnati Bengals needed it most.
The Bengals struggled on offense throughout the first quarter, but Chase helped turn things around late in the period with a huge 46-yard reception. Chase reeled in a one-handed catch, beating top Rams cornerback Jalen Ramsey in the process.
The slow-motion replay shows just how difficult the catch was.
Joe Burrow has joked in the past that when things are tough, he just heaves it up to Chase. That strategy paid off here.
The Bengals couldn’t get anything else going on the drive, but the big catch did ensure that Cincinnati got on the board with a field goal to cut the Rams’ lead to 7-3.
