Justin Tucker suspended by NFL for violating league’s personal conduct policy

The NFL has suspended former Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker ten game for violating the league’s personal conduct policy.

In a statement released by the NFL on Thursday, the league noted that Tucker, who was released by the Ravens last month, has been “suspended without pay for the first 10 weeks of the 2025 regular season for violations of the NFL’s Personal Conduct Policy.” According to the NFL, the suspension will go into effect on August 26, the league’s roster cutdown day.

Tucker will be eligible for reinstatement on Tuesday, November 11. He can serve his suspension while he remains a free agent and can try out with teams and even sign with a club. If Tucker were to sign during the offseason, he can attend training camp and participate in preseason games.

The suspension comes amidst serious accusations against the former Ravens kicker. In recent months, 16 massage therapists from eight different Baltimore-area spas accused Tucker of inappropriate sexual behavior. In a story that ran in the Baltimore Banner “several therapists said Tucker’s behavior was so egregious that they ended his sessions early or refused to work on him again.”

Tucker denied the allegations against him, calling them “unequivocally false,” when they were first raised. A statement released Thursday by his agent Rob Roche noted that the kicker was “disappointed” with the decision.

Baltimore released Tucker shortly after the NFL Draft, during which the Ravens selected Arizona kicker Tyler Loop during the sixth round.
