St. Brown reeled in a 18 yard touchdown pass from Jared Goff midway through the third quarter, leveling the scores at 21-21.
The 25-year-old got separation from corner Marlon Humphrey to claim a superb catch by the pylon.
But it was his celebration, caught live by ESPN mics, that left social media buzzing.
St. Brown flexed his arms as he spiked the ball, walking off in the direction of the stands.
“I run this s***, n****,” he appeared to shout, before the camera cut away.
Following a dominant second half, St. Brown sat down with ESPN’s SportCenter host Scott Van Pelt to discuss the contest.
SVP told St.Brown his comment had been picked up by national TV.
“I don’t want to be the bearer of bad news,” Van Pelt said.
“When you scored, you were a bit emotional, let’s say. What is coming out of you in that moment?”
“Excuse my profanity,” St. Brown replied.
“SVP told me it was on TV, so I’m sorry guys. I was just excited man, it was a big play in the game.
“It was a play we needed at that time, I was just full of emotions, got a little excited.”
The NFL does not have a specific fine for profanity in their guidelines.
But St.Brown could receive a hefty financial penalty under the banner of unsportsmanlike conduct.
