Let $k$ be a field of characteristic not 2, 3. Let $G$ be an exceptional simple algebraic group over $k$ of type ${{\text{F}}_{4}},$$^{1}{{\text{E}}_{6}}$ or ${{\text{E}}_{7}}$ with trivial Tits algebras. Let $X$ be a projective $G$-homogeneous variety. If $G$ is of type ${{\text{E}}_{7}},$ we assume in addition that the respective parabolic subgroup is of type ${{\text{P}}_{7}}.$ The main result of the paper says that the degree map on the group of zero cycles of $X$ is injective.
