Justin Tucker Suspended By NFL For Majority Of Next Season After Serious Allegations

Justin Tucker, a former kicker for the Baltimore Ravens, has been hit with a 10-week suspension by the NFL after the league discovered that he was in violation of their personal conduct policy, according to an announcement Thursday. Tucker will miss the first 10 weeks of the 2025 regular season.

Tucker is allowed to serve his punishment while still in free agency and has the ability to sign a contract with an NFL franchise. If he lands a deal, he will be permitted to go to training camp and he can also compete in preseason contests prior to his suspension beginning Aug. 26.

The NFL stated that he will be eligible Nov. 11 to be reinstated into the league.

The 35-year-old Tucker was knocked with sexual misconduct allegations by a total of 16 massage therapists from eight different spas and wellness centers, with all of them being high-end, located in the area of Baltimore, according to a report from The Baltimore Banner. The alleged incidents reportedly took place between 2012-16, which was Tucker’s first five campaigns playing professional football.

Tucker was released May 5 by the Ravens during the investigation from the NFL.

“We are disappointed with the NFL’s decision,” said Tucker’s agent Rob Roche in an official statement, per ESPN. “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.”
