Justin Tucker Denies Misconduct Claims Amid Accusations from Six Massage Therapists

Justin Tucker has been named in a misconduct complaint by six Baltimore massage therapists. 

For 13 seasons, Justin Tucker has been more than just a kicker for the Baltimore Ravens. He has been a pillar of reliability, a record-setter, a player whose precision under pressure has made him one of the greatest at his position. Now, his name is tied to something far different—accusations that threaten to alter everything.

Baltimore Banner Reports on Tucker’s Alleged Misconduct

According to a report from the Baltimore Banner, six massage therapists have accused Tucker, 35, of inappropriate behavior at multiple Baltimore-area spas and wellness centers. The allegations, spanning from 2012 to 2016, include claims that he exposed himself, made inappropriate contact, and left behind bodily fluids on massage tables. Some therapists allegedly cut sessions short and refused to see him again.

Per the Baltimore Banner:

“Five of the women said Tucker asked them to massage his pelvic region or inner thighs while he had an erection. Then they said he repeatedly wiggled his pelvis to remove the sheets, which fully or partially exposed his genitals. Two women said Tucker brushed them with his exposed penis. Three said, when they returned to the treatment room after Tucker left, they discovered a large wet spot on the massage table, which they strongly believed to be ejaculate.”

At least two businesses reportedly took action, with one stating Tucker was “immediately terminated as a client” after an alleged 2014 incident. An attorney for another now-closed spa said they banned him outright to ensure a safe environment. Despite these actions, none of the women pursued legal charges, and legal experts note that the statute of limitations has since expired.

Tucker Releases Statement to Address Allegations

Tucker has denied all allegations, calling them “unequivocally false” in a statement posted to social media. His attorneys described the claims as “impossible to prove” and added that their client was never officially banned from any of the spas.

Yet, the NFL may still intervene. The league’s personal conduct policy prohibits behavior that “undermines or puts at risk the integrity of the NFL.” In 2022, the league suspended Deshaun Watson for 11 games and fined him $5 million after 24 women accused him of misconduct during massage therapy sessions.

For now, no formal investigation has been announced. But in a league where reputations are scrutinized, and legacies are fragile, the weight of these allegations will not disappear quickly.
