The NFL has opened an investigation into Baltimore Ravens veteran kicker Justin Tucker after 16 female massage therapists accused him of sexual misconduct.

Tucker denied the accusations in a post on X on Jan. 30 and called the allegations against him “unequivocally false.” He said he never received complaints from a massage therapist, was never dismissed from a massage session and was never told he was not welcome at any spa. He also called The Banner’s reporting “desperate tabloid fodder.”

The Baltimore Banner reports that NFL investigators have been interviewing massage therapists who have accused Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker of inappropriate sexual behavior.
