Justin Tucker’s agent, Rob Roche, has released a statement after his client was hit with a 10-game suspension by the NFL.
On Thursday, the NFL announced that the former Baltimore Ravens kicker was suspended 10 games for violating the league’s personal conduct policy. 16 massage therapists in the Baltimore area have accused Tucker of sexual misconduct.
Roche released a statement on Justin Tucker’s suspension, saying they’re “disappointed” in the league’s decision. Though Tucker has the option to appeal the ban, Roche’s statement outlines that Tucker was advised to accept it.
Here’s Roche’s full statement, courtesy of ESPN’s Adam Schefter:
“We are disappointed with the NFL’s decision. Justin has always strived to carry himself in a way that would make his family and community proud. He stands by his previous statements.
In order to put this difficult episode behind him and get back on the field as soon as possible, we have advised Justin to accept this resolution and close this matter. The people who know Justin best know his character and understand that while he remains fully committed to excellence as a football player, he is deeply dedicated to his most important lifetime roles as a father, husband, and friend.”

Justin Tucker can be reinstated on November 11, after Week 10 of the 2025 regular season. The first Week 11 game is a “Thursday Night Football” contest between the New York Jets and New England Patriots at Gillette Stadium.
The Ravens signed Tucker as an undrafted free agent out of Texas in 2012, moving on from veteran Billy Cundiff. Tucker helped Baltimore to a Super Bowl 47 championship in his rookie season, including a game-winning field goal against Peyton Manning and the top-seeded Denver Broncos in overtime of the AFC Divisional Round.
Tucker was a seven-time Pro Bowler who earned eight All-Pro nods (five First-team and three Second-team selections). Named to the 2010s All-Decade Team, he also holds the records for longest field goal made (66 yards) and best career field goal percentage (89.103).
The 35-year-old Tucker had far and away the worst season of his career in 2024, finishing with a woeful 73.3 field goal percentage. Before that, Tucker’s worst single-season mark came in 2015, when he still made 82.5 percent of his kicks.
