Ja’Marr Chase was understandably taken aback after a reporter asked him a bizarre question about “baby oil” after he helped the Bengals win their first game of the season on Sunday.
Chase registered three receptions for 85 yards and a touchdown against the Panthers, with both teams leaving the field holding 1-3 records after the clock ran out.
He spoke to reporters in the locker room after the impressive performance, and one of them asked perhaps what was the strangest question of the season so far.
“Ja’Marr, did you have baby oil on today,” the reporter asked, referencing a mazy touchdown run that began with the wideout breaking multiple tackles before taking off for the end zone.
Chase had to back it up for a second before answering.
“No…” he said. “We gotta keep that for somebody else, bro. That’s not my question right there. I did do it as a kid, though.
“You can’t even ask that no more, there’s too much going on in life right now with that, man. We can’t do that.” he added with a laugh. “Yeah, we can’t do that.”

Fans Struggled To Understand Why A Reporter Would Even Ask Ja’Marr Chase Something Like That
Fans couldn’t believe a reporter actually asked Ja’Marr Chase whether he was oiled up, especially amid the Diddy allegations.
“Pause,” one wrote.
“now why would he ask that 😭,” someone wondered.
“Out of all the questions bro could’ve asked😭🤦🏻♂️,” said a third.
“Gotta keep that for somebody else” that’s wild 😭😭,” a fourth commented.
“I’m weak the reporter actually asked that lmaooooo,” a user laughed.
“Reporter knew EXACTLY what he was doing,” someone pointed out.
“Dumbest question I’ve ever heard. Have some awareness dude,” someone advised.
We have to agree that the reporter knew exactly what he was doing and was likely going for a viral moment, something he certainly succeeded in generating.
Travis Kelce Used One Word To Describe His Whirlwind Relationship With Taylor Swift

Travis Kelce is proud to have girlfriend Taylor Swift by his side, and he doesn’t mind that the whole world is watching.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have been dating since at least September 2023 when she shocked everybody by showing up to Arrowhead Stadium. The move came months after Kelce first publicly expressed interest in Swift, after attending one of her concerts and failing to send a friendship bracelet to her with his number on it.
Travis Kelce knows just how obsessed the world is with his relationship.
“I’m very aware,” Kelce said when asked whether he understands the “impact” his romance with Taylor Swift was having on the NFL.
“Obviously, this is mostly because Taylor’s in my life now and we got her [to be] part of Chiefs Kingdom,” he explained in a resurfaced interview with sports reporter Laura Okmin ahead of the Super Bowl.
“And sure enough, that brought an entire entourage of human beings who just love to support her and love to support everything that she’s about.”
He used an incredible word to describe their relationship.
“With that being said, I do, you know, have a guarded approach to it,” he explained before Super Bowl 58. “But at the same time, I know what me and Taylor have is special, so I get [the interest].”
Taylor Swift was spotted at 13 of Travis Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs football games this past season, first popping up in a box at Arrowhead Stadium in Missouri on Sept. 24, 2023. The team won 10 of the 13 games at which she’s been in attendance.
That also included the team winning playoff games over the Miami Dolphins, Buffalo Bills, Baltimore Ravens, and then the San Francisco 49ers in the Super Bowl.
Kelce finished the Super Bowl with nine receptions for 93 yards, including a crucial catch in overtime.
The 34-year-old slowed down slightly in 2023, finishing with 93 catches for 984 yards and five touchdowns. It should be noted he did miss two games, Week 1 due to injury and Week 17 as he chose to sit out with the Chiefs not playing for anything.
