BALTIMORE — A recent report has revealed that an additional seven massage therapists have accused Justin Tucker, the kicker for the Baltimore Ravens, of engaging in sexually inappropriate behavior. As reported by the Baltimore Banner, this brings the total number of accusers to 16, with accounts coming from therapists at eight spas in the Baltimore region. All allegations are said to have taken place between the years 2012 and 2016.

The Baltimore Banner initially broke the story last month, having interviewed six massage therapists who provided detailed accounts of their interactions with Tucker. Since then, the number of individuals coming forward has more than doubled, indicating a growing concern regarding the kicker’s behavior during that period.

In response to the initial claims, Tucker stated that he had not received any complaints from massage therapists nor had he been informed that he was unwelcome at any spa or business establishment. His comments suggested confidence in his professional conduct and a belief that the accusations were unfounded.

Meanwhile, the NFL has acknowledged the allegations and has announced that it will investigate the matter thoroughly. The outcome of this investigation remains to be seen, but it has already sparked significant attention and discussion. As the situation unfolds, there will likely be more information available regarding the claims against Tucker and the league’s response.
