In a new statement denying allegations of inappropriate behavior at Baltimore-area massage parlors, Ravens kicker Justin Tucker said he’s devastated that “anyone I have worked with would not have felt respected and valued as a professional, but more importantly as a person.”

“To anyone who has felt otherwise, I am sorry,” Tucker continued. “I want you to know I am committed to ensuring that everyone I interact with continues to feel that I respect them and care about them as a human being.”

Tucker’s statement first appeared Wednesday on the website OutKick.

“I maintain I did not act inappropriately at any point before, during, or after a professional bodywork treatment session, nor have I ever been told I am unwelcome at any massage therapy provider,” Tucker said, echoing the statement he issued last month.

The Baltimore Banner first reported that six massage therapists from five spas around the Baltimore area accused the 35-year-old Ravens kicker of “exposing his genitals, brushing two of them with his exposed penis and leaving what they believed to be ejaculate on the massage table after three of his treatments” between 2012 and 2016. Since then, 10 more massage therapists have come forward with similar accusations, according to The Banner.

One of the massage therapists spoke to The Baltimore Sun about how Tucker had allegedly exposed himself during massage sessions, once touching her thigh.

Attorneys Michael Belsky and Catherine Dickinson, who represent several of Tucker’s accusers, said in a statement Thursday: “The allegations in this matter remain consistent and unchanged, and Mr. Tucker’s statements do not alter that in any meaningful way.”

Tucker’s wife, Amanda, also released her first statement to OutKick, saying, “The false allegations against Justin have caused so much hurt to our family. I believe my husband, and I love and support him fully.”

The NFL is investigating the allegations against Tucker. Earlier this week, Ravens general manager Eric DeCosta and coach John Harbaugh addressed the situation for the first time, saying they will wait for the league’s inquiry to play out before deciding on Tucker’s future with the team.

“The allegations are serious (and) concerning,” DeCosta said. “The amount of allegations are serious and concerning.”

In laying out Tucker’s response to the allegations, his attorney, Joe Terry of Washington-based Williams & Connolly, noted that the Ravens kicker was repeatedly welcomed at several high-end massage parlors after the reported dates of his alleged misconduct at those sites. Terry noted that after Tucker signed a $16.8 million contract extension and bought a house outside Baltimore in 2016, he switched to working with massage therapists at his home.

In his latest statement, Tucker reiterated his respect for massage professionals, echoing a statement he issued to The Sun earlier this month.

“Physical therapy and massage therapy are a large part of why I’ve been consistently healthy and available during the football season,” he said. “In fact, both my wife and I continue to count so many of those professionals as our friends. I absolutely respect the massage therapy profession and more so the individuals who work as massage therapists.”
