In a Wednesday talk with reporters, Baltimore Ravens offensive guard Marshal Yanda emphatically denied spitting on Cincinnati Bengals linebacker Vontaze Burfict in his team's 24-21 win on Sunday.
Jameson Hensley of ESPN provided a recap of the issue at hand:
"The sequence in question occurred in the fourth quarter after Burfict tackled Baltimore running back Alex Collins and a minor scuffle ensued involving several players. Video from the CBS broadcast of the game shows spit coming from Yanda's mouth while Burfict was on the ground after the play, and Burfict had no apparent reaction.
