Ravens Kicker Justin Tucker Accused of Inappropriate Behavior at Spas

BALTIMORE, Md. — Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker has been accused of inappropriate behavior by six massage therapists at four high-end spas and wellness centers in the Baltimore area, according to an investigation by The Baltimore Banner. The allegations, spanning from 2012 to 2016, include claims that Tucker exposed his genitals, brushed therapists with his exposed penis, and left what they believed to be ejaculate on massage tables.

Several therapists said Tucker’s behavior was so severe that they ended sessions early or refused to work with him again. Two spas reportedly banned him from returning. The Banner spoke to six therapists, all of whom requested anonymity, fearing retaliation from the Ravens organization or fans. Tucker’s attorneys denied the allegations, calling them “speculative and impossible to prove.”

One therapist, identified as L., said Tucker repeatedly exposed himself during a 2014 session at Ojas Spa in Pikesville. “He kept readjusting to make his penis come out,” she said. Another therapist, E., who was seven months pregnant at the time, said Tucker wiggled his pelvis to remove the sheets, exposing himself. “It felt premeditated,” she said. “It made me feel even more gross because I was pregnant.”

Tucker’s attorneys, Thomas A. Clare and Steven J. Harrison, stated that Tucker “has never behaved inappropriately during any massage therapy session.” They also denied that he was banned from any spas, calling the claims “fictitious and utterly baseless.”

The Ravens and the NFL declined to comment on the allegations. Tucker, 35, is one of the NFL’s most recognizable kickers, having won Super Bowl XLVII with the Ravens in 2013. He has also been a spokesman for Royal Farms, a regional convenience store chain.

Several therapists described feeling powerless in the face of Tucker’s celebrity status. “He knows we have no power and can’t do anything,” said J., who worked at Apothecary Wellness. She said she found a “huge wet spot” on the massage table after a session with Tucker, which she believed to be ejaculate. Tucker’s attorneys suggested the dampness could have been sweat or body oil, calling the therapists’ conclusions “wild and inherently improbable.”

Legal experts said the statute of limitations for any potential criminal charges, such as indecent exposure or battery, has expired. Civil cases, such as claims for intentional infliction of emotional distress, would face significant legal hurdles. However, Tucker could still face consequences under the NFL’s personal conduct policy, which prohibits behavior that “undermines or puts at risk the integrity of the NFL.”

The therapists who spoke to The Banner said they hope Tucker will be held accountable. “I want something to be done,” said L. “The only reason that nothing’s being done so far is because it’s Justin Tucker.”
