Daring US agent like a baby sometimes? (6-3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bottle-fed

'like a baby sometimes?' is the definition.
(a baby might be fed with a bottle)

'daring us agent' is the wordplay.
'daring' becomes 'bottle'.
'us agent' becomes 'fed' (short for a federal agent).
'bottle'+'fed'='BOTTLE-FED'
