Ravens' Tucker accused of inappropriate behavior

Six massage therapists in the Baltimore area have accused Ravens kicker Justin Tucker of inappropriate sexual behavior between 2012 and 2016, according to a report.

Innocent until proven guilty and all that, but I wonder if he knew this was coming and that helps explain why he had such a rough year?

The mega thread on this on the Ravens reddit says he'd also been getting chucked out of his home by his wife a lot.

Still thinking more about Andy Reid leaving Philly and his arrival in KC.

Andy Reid had a passable QB in Alex Smith, but the QB he wanted was in the 2016 draft so he went after him.

Andy Reid also built a culture. He got rid of KC's best defensive player, Marcus Peters, while Peters was still at All Pro caliber, because Peters was a malcontent.

Reid wanted smart players who were also disciplined. Tomlin is the anti-thesis of him in so many ways.

yeah, heard on a radio program he convinced hunt to go after mahomes

Justin Tucker is just so easy to hate for some reason. I despise his face.

It's so crazy how the rise and fall happens in athletics.

About to see a "no massage therapist" clause in these dudes contracts. Ridiculous.

That is kinda the norm with the NFL.

And to be fair a lot of other sports, leagues and large institutions in this country.

We are the country who brought Nazi War Criminals to the US to work on the space program to beat the Soviets after all. Our IPhones and clothing is made by slave labor or children. And on and on.

Our virtue is very flexible. And always has been.

Well I guess it's good news someone likes our coaches. Maybe not so good losing them to a fairly sideways move.

Gordon is actually an interesting option because he's both big and fast, he finished with a 4.45 40 time. He's only projected to be a mid rounder, probably a 3rd or 4th, but that would be a pick I'd be really happy with to fill the RB position.

He also had a downright monstrous season in 2023, with putting up 1732 yards, 21 TDs and 6.1 Y/A. He had a down year in 2024 but would be going at the top of the draft had he repeated his 2023. Getting him with a 3rd would be great business IMO.
