Played (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

acted

toyed

'played' is the definition.
('toy' can be a synonym of 'play')

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for toyed that I've seen before include "Engaged in an activity, but not seriously" , "Trifled (with someone's affections)" , "Played" , "Acted idly" , "fiddled" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard and The Telegraph.
