For any other Arch newbies who installed with yay and are struggling to figure out how to apply the instructions in the Wiki, perhaps I can save you a bit of time.
Assuming you've installed a prior version of chrome with yay, and haven't disabled the yay cache, yay should have cached it in ~/.cache/yay. If you do have a previously cached version, you can use the pacman command from the wiki to roll back using that path instead:
# pacman -U .cache/yay/google-chrome/google-chrome-96.0.4664.110-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

When reporting this package as outdated make sure there is indeed a new version for Linux Desktop. You can have a look at the "Stable updates" tag in Release blog for this.
You can also run this command to obtain the version string for the latest chrome version:
Do not report updates for ChromeOS, Android or other platforms stable versions as updates here.
