Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker faces more allegations of sexually inappropriate behavior, as three additional massage therapists have accused him of misconduct, The Baltimore Banner reported Saturday.
In total, Tucker has been accused of inappropriate sexual behavior by nine massage therapists, according to an investigation by the Baltimore Banner.
In response to the new accusations, Tucker’s lawyers told The Banner to refer to the kicker’s social media post Thursday, when Tucker called the allegations “unequivocally false.”
Tucker wrote that The Banner article “takes innocuous or ambiguous interactions and skews them so out of proportion that they are no longer recognizable. … This is desperate tabloid fodder.”
With Tucker facing nine allegations of sexually inappropriate behavior, the Ravens might consider moving on from their longtime kicker. Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk points out that if Baltimore decides to part ways, the Ravens might wait until the start of the new league year in March. That’s when he can be released in a way that divides the cap charge over two seasons.
Without a post-June 1 designation, releasing Tucker would trigger a cap charge of $7.5175 million for 2025. By waiting to activate the CBA rule that allows a team to sever ties while spreading the dead money over two years, the Ravens would take a $2.8725 million charge in 2025 and a $4.645 million charge in 2026. Cutting him would also wipe out a non-guaranteed $4.2 million salary for 2025.
The story by The Banner contains graphic descriptions in regards to the accusations against Tucker.
Two spas say they banned Tucker. He denies the bans and the behavior that women say has left them emotionally scarred.
Attorneys for Tucker denied the allegations of inappropriate behavior, calling them speculative and “impossible to prove.”

After receiving a tip on Jan. 9, The Banner began investigating and spoke to six massage therapists who recounted troubling firsthand experiences with Tucker from 2012 to 2016. The women said they had long wanted to tell their stories.
“I’ve told people about this over the years, and they either act like it’s hot goss[ip] or a joke,” said one therapist who worked on Tucker in 2016. “But it was really degrading.”
A tweet about Tucker from 2021 has also gone viral. @MCsburner on X wrote, “Justin Tucker is canceled but it’s not my place to provide the reason. Let’s just say he’s been told by many massage places to never come back.”

“We are aware of the Baltimore Banner’s story regarding Justin Tucker as well as his response. We take any allegations of this nature seriously and will continue to monitor the situation,” the Ravens said in a released statement.
