Component of a certain cage (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rib

'component of a certain cage' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for rib that I've seen before include "Vein structure in a leaf" , "Poke fun at the bone" , "Tease good-naturedly" , "Tease; body part" , "Supporting structure" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal.
