Embattled kicker Justin Tucker was cut by the Ravens on Monday, general manager Eric DeCosta announced.
The news comes 24 hours after head coach John Harbaugh had adamantly told reporters that any decision on Tucker’s future would be “based on football.”
Tucker had been accused of inappropriate behavior by 16 massage therapists in the Baltimore area during a span between 2012 and 2016, which had first been reported by the Baltimore Banner in January. The longtime Ravens kicker has denied the accusations on multiple occasions, saying that they were “simply not true.”

Thank you very much and God bless you.
- He has made $51,129,281 since he started in 2012. He had $8.4M left on his contract, I don't know if they still owed any of that to him.
- Last year was the worst year of his career. Before that, I think he was the best kicker ever by some metrics. If he hadn't had a down year, would they be releasing him?
He was only modeling after Algore and his chakra.
When kickers go bad, it happens quickly.
Hmmm.. I can't even imagen what one would have to do in this nation today to get charged with sexual misconduct...(?) Rape the neighbors poodle perhaps.....probably not.
The 49ers had kickers that were bad, but went on to be good with other teams.
These allegations are impossible after 9-13 years to prove or disprove. The main one were from his rookie season, in which he won a Super Bowl. Kind of gross how this can be done to anyone, without any proof. He was probably done anyway because he had a bad year in 2024, but this is a pretty awful way to end his career.
Got booted
This is strange.
01. ) Hasn’t the statute of limitations expired on this kind of stuff?
02. ) Money grab by the masseuses?
03. ) Story by the Ravens so that they could cut him?
I knew it, I knew it, I knew it.
A Trump hater, with ‘hippie’ and ‘pervert’ written all over him.
Way to go, Browns...
Are you referring to Natasha Lyonne.
Doesn't that happen all the time? Look at Bill Cosby and Masterson, their cases were a lot older than that.
And they've gone after Nazis much much longer than that.
I never heard that Justin Tucker mentioned Trump, or was a hippie.
They come and they go.
Ravens drafted a kicker in the 6th round. He good to go.
Next man up.
Justin Tucker holds the NFL record for the longest field goal with a 66-yard kick.................
So kickers are football players after all.
I think the SoL often now doesn’t apply for sexual stuff?
Ha!
Well at least he’s no Rafael Septien
Someone help me. Is the current official narrative “Believe the victims” or “Drag $100 through a trailer park”?
