Bagnaia and Marquez exchanged angry gestures in the gravel following the incident, but initially, it appeared they had not sustained serious injuries.
Marquez veered off track, holding onto third place with six laps left to go.
Starting from the fourth spot, Bagnaia attempted to pass him.
The rear of Bagnaia's Ducati appeared to be closely attached to the front end of Marquez's motorcycle.
The two bicycles became entangled and veered off the path.
For a few moments, Bagnaia found himself trapped under Marquez's Ducati while they were skidding.
However, he stood up and motioned towards Marquez to indicate that he was fine.
He departed with his leather garments ripped and worn on his arm, yet possibly lucky that the harm wasn't more severe.
Bagnaia visited the health clinic for an examination.
Less than half an hour after their mishap, Bagnaia and Marquez were seen strolling through the paddock area, no longer in their racing suits, and appeared to be unharmed.
Stewards are conducting an investigation into the incident.
Defending MotoGP titleholder Bagnaia started Sunday three points behind the current championship frontrunner, Jorge Martin.
Martin's second-place finish at the Aragon MotoGP on Sunday has propelled him to the top of the championship standings, now holding a 23-point lead.
Marc Marquez emerged as the winner of the race.
