"It is said to be the first tryout for the six-time Pro Bowl player since serving a 10-game suspension at the start of this season for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy. Tucker spent the first 13 years of his career with the Ravens but was released in May after reports of multiple massage therapists accusing him of inappropriate sexual behavior first surfaced in January."
"A Super Bowl champion following the 2012 season, Tucker is one of the most accurate kickers in NFL history, having made 89% of his field goal attempts (fourth best all-time). In 2021, he connected on a 66-yard field goal that stood as an NFL record until Jacksonville's Cam Little broke it with a 68-yarder earlier this season. In 2022, Tucker agreed to a four-year contract extension, including $17.5 million guaranteed, through the 2027 season."
Justin Tucker will attend a tryout for the New Orleans Saints after serving a 10-game suspension for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy. Multiple massage therapists accused Tucker of inappropriate sexual behavior from 2012–2016, accusations he denies. The Ravens released Tucker in May after the allegations surfaced, and the NFL suspended him following an investigation. Tucker spent 13 seasons with Baltimore, is a six-time Pro Bowl selection, and has made 89% of his career field goal attempts. He hit a 66-yard field goal in 2021 and signed a four-year extension in 2022. The Saints are auditioning kickers after Blake Grupe missed two field goals Sunday, bringing his season total to eight misses.
