Ribbed (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

teased

'ribbed' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for teased that I've seen before include "Tantalized" , "Subjected to banter" , "Tantalised or annoyed goodnaturedly" , "Made fun of, playfully" , "Poked fun" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
