JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) -- Jaguars receiver Marqise Lee says he was flagged for using a racial slur in Jacksonville's 33-16 loss to Oakland on Sunday.

Lee acknowledged Monday that it was the reason for his unsportsmanlike conduct penalty late in the third quarter, a flag that seemingly started Jacksonville's fourth-quarter meltdown in which defensive tackle Malik Jackson and cornerback Jalen Ramsey were ejected.

''I got flagged for saying the N-word,'' Lee said. ''It was back and forth. In the midst of the game, emotion is going from both teams. It just so happened the ref heard me, so therefore I got the flag. I've just got to fess up to it.''

Lee said he and several Raiders were ''going back and forth as far as the words and stuff.'' The fourth-year receiver from USC said he let his emotions get the best of him and said ''it went both ways.''

The NFL made racial slurs a point of emphasis in 2014, reminding officials that the league already had a rule against abusive language.

Lee jogged off the field after his 15-yard penalty and was clearly frustrated as he explained to coach Gus Bradley what happened and why.

''Throughout the whole game, we had a lot of players saying a lot of different things, but that's just the midst of the game,'' Lee said. ''It's kind of hard when you have refs out there trying to limit what people say when you've got grown men hitting each other.

''You've got a lot of things that's going on that's flaring as far as in your mind. ... It wasn't intentional at all. I know he woke up the next day not worrying about it at all, just like I woke up not worrying about it. I feel like you're going to always have that issue because you're going to always have situations flame up and both teams are going back and forth and things are going to get said regardless if the ref likes it or not.''

:mindblown: How can you have a rule on the books that only effects black players? Is that not discriminatory? They can't say it's for "racial slurs" when you have a member of NFL personnel saying he wants the N word taken out of the game. John Wooten said, "We want this word to be policed from the parking lot to the equipment room to the locker room. Secretaries, PR people, whoever, we want it eliminated completely and want it policed everywhere."

"This word" and "it" are singular. It's clear who he's targeting with his agenda:mjpls:

The NFLPA is a disgrace.
