Justin Tucker, the Baltimore Ravens kicker, has firmly refuted allegations of sexual misconduct made by six unnamed massage therapists. The claims, detailed in an investigative report by the Baltimore Banner, suggest inappropriate behavior during treatments between 2012 and 2016.
Tucker labeled the allegations as 'unequivocally false' and described the report as 'desperate tabloid fodder.' He stated, 'I have never been accused of acting inappropriately in front of a massage therapist or during any massage therapy session.'
The report claims that Tucker exposed himself and made unwanted physical contact during treatments. However, Tucker emphasized that he has never received complaints from any massage therapist and has not been banned from any spas.
The NFL stated they are taking the allegations seriously and are investigating the matter, while the Ravens organization has acknowledged the report and is monitoring the situation closely.
Tucker, who won Super Bowl XLVII with the Ravens and holds the highest career field goal percentage in NFL history, expressed concern over the impact of these allegations on his family and his reputation.
