Three more massage therapists have accused Baltimore Ravens placekicker Justin Tucker of sexual misconduct, bringing the total number to nine women who say the Pro Bowler was inappropriate during sessions.
The unnamed woman, who is only identified as M. in the story, said in 2015 that during her massage session with Tucker at the QG, a downtown Baltimore spa, he stroked her inner thigh and exposed himself, leaving what she said was sperm on the table.
“I understand that Justin Tucker is an important client to The QG, but as an employee of The QG who has tolerated the previous interactions with him, I no longer feel safe or comfortable working with him,’ the woman wrote in an internal report.
Tucker, 35, has called the allegations ‘unequivocally false,’ adding that the women took ‘innocuous or ambiguous interactions and skews them so out of proportion that they are no longer recognizable,’ calling the Baltimore Banner’s initial report ‘desperate tabloid fodder.’

“I cannot be any clearer,” Tucker said in a statement. “These accusations are false and incredibly hurtful to both me, and more importantly, my family.”
The Baltimore Banner said they spoke to six massage therapists about Tucker and reported that two spas banned him from their business.
Tucker denied being inappropriate or being banned from any spa.
The NFL and the Ravens each put out statements concerning Tucker.
‘We first became aware of the allegations from the reporter investigating this story as they were not previously shared with the NFL,’ NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy said. ‘We take any allegation seriously and will look into the matter.’
‘We take any allegations of this nature seriously and will continue to monitor the situation,’ the Ravens said in a statement.
Tucker, the most accurate kicker in NFL history, signed a four-year, $24 million contract extension with the Ravens in 2022 and will earn a base salary of $4.2 million next season.
