Ravens Kicker Justin Tucker Accused of Sexual Misconduct by Six Massage Therapists
Ravens kicker Justin Tucker faces accusations of sexual misconduct from six massage therapists, alleging inappropriate behavior at Baltimore-area spas between 2012 and 2016. Tucker denies the claims, calling them "unequivocally false." The NFL has been informed but the statute of limitations has expired for legal action.
Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker has been accused of sexual misconduct by six massage therapists, who claim the incidents occurred between 2012 and 2016 at various Baltimore-area spas and wellness centers. According to the Baltimore Banner, the women allege that Tucker exposed his genitals, touched two of them with his exposed penis, and left what they believed to be ejaculate on the massage tables after some of their sessions.
The therapists reported that Tucker requested massages on his pelvic region or inner thighs while erect and allegedly wiggled his pelvis to expose himself further during treatments. In some cases, the women ended sessions early or refused to treat him again after these encounters. Three of the therapists claimed to have found large wet spots on the tables after Tucker left, which they believed to be semen.
Tucker, who joined the Ravens in May 2012 as an undrafted free agent, has played his entire 13-season NFL career with the team. A representative from a local spa confirmed that Tucker was terminated as a client after an alleged 2014 incident. Another spa’s lawyer said Tucker was banned from their business following a similar complaint.
Tucker denied the accusations, calling them “unequivocally false” in a statement shared on social media. His legal team described the allegations as “impossible to prove” and firmly denied any inappropriate behavior during massage sessions. They further asserted that Tucker had never been banned from any of the spas where the incidents allegedly took place.
The NFL has stated it is aware of the allegations and will review the matter. The women involved have not reported the incidents to law enforcement, and legal experts suggest that the statute of limitations has expired. However, the NFL’s personal conduct policy allows the league to investigate and impose punishment if the behavior is deemed to undermine the integrity of the sport.
This news comes after the league’s suspension of Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson in 2022, following accusations from 24 women of varying degrees of sexual misconduct during massage therapy sessions.
