Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase delivered an explosive start in the NFL's regular-season game in Madrid, amassing 142 receiving yards within the first 25 minutes of play. The performance underscored Chase's status as one of the league's premier pass-catchers and highlighted the growing international footprint of American football.
The game, played on November 8, 2026, marked another milestone in the NFL's Global Games series. Chase's early dominance came against a defense unable to contain his route-running and yards-after-catch ability, setting a tone that energized the Bengals' offense from the opening drive.
