The Baltimore Ravens have released kicker Justin Tucker, the team announced Monday. The Ravens made the decision amid allegations from 16 women that Tucker engaged in sexual misconduct during massage therapy sessions.

The fact that it was couched by G.M. Eric DeCosta as a “football decision” is no surprise. Players are released for football reasons all the time. There’s no mechanism in the Collective Bargaining Agreement for challenging the constant churn of football decisions.

The Ravens release longtime kicker Justin Tucker. He was the subject of sexual misconduct allegations from more than a dozen massage therapists.
