Apparently, the British comedian is facing rape and sexual assault charges simply for being on team MAGA. Carlson wrote as much on X on Friday
in a post that portrayed Brand as a martyr to the right-wing cause
“Russell Brand was once a famous leftwing actor
celebrated by the British establishment,” Carlson began
“then he criticized the government for using Covid to turn the UK into a totalitarian state.”
Russell Brand was once a famous leftwing actor
Then he criticized the government for using Covid to turn the UK into a totalitarian state
A government TV station accused Brand of committing sex crimes…
says the government made it all up to get back at him for “criticizing” it
Carlson goes on to insist that the British government is so outraged with the comedian’s criticism that it fashioned decades of sex crime accusations against him using “anonymous” witnesses from “more than 20 years ago,” for a case he’s classified as “transparently political and absurd.”
Carlson defended the former radio host fiercely Friday
as he argued that Brand is a model immigrant
“None of the charges are backed by hard evidence,” he claimed
wrapping up his image of Brand as a sacrificial lamb of the right wing with a nice concluding bow
because Britain is no longer a free country..
Say a prayer that the Trump administration comes to his rescue.”

Baltimore drafted Arizona kicker Tyler Loop in the sixth round of this year’s NFL Draft, underscoring how uncertain Tucker’s future is. The Baltimore Banner has reported that over a dozen massage therapists have accused Tucker of inappropriate sexual behavior
The NFL has said it will investigate the allegations
Tucker has maintained he did not act inappropriately towards any of his accusers
The accusations against Tucker include claims that he exposed his genitals
brushed some of the therapists with his penis and left ejaculate on treatment tables
Two spas told the Banner they had banned Tucker from returning
One therapist who spoke to the Banner described Tucker’s alleged behavior as “really degrading”
Another said that: “I can’t watch sports anymore
Tucker is considered by many to be the greatest kicker in NFL history
and holds the records for longest field goal and career field goal percentage
He has been named to the Pro Bowl seven times since he joined the Ravens as an undrafted free agent in 2012
the 35-year-old had the worst on-field season of his career in 2024
the Ravens’ second-round pick in this year’s draft
declined to discuss allegations of sexual assault that have been directed at him
and I’ve been completely open about everything,” Green said
Green played at Virginia and then at Marshall. He said at the NFL scouting combine that he transferred after being accused of sexual assault for a second time
Green told reporters at the combine that he also was accused of sexual assault in high school
He said he was never charged and insisted he did nothing wrong
He was asked Sunday how he ended up facing two separate allegations
“I’m just focused right now on moving forward with my career at the Ravens,” he said
The Ravens said after drafting Green that they did their “due diligence” on him
Ravens coach John Harbaugh was adamant any decision about Tucker's future would be related to his on-field performance
"Every decision we make has to be based on football," Harbaugh explained to reporters
You've got a rookie kicker and here you took him in the sixth round
Just from a football standpoint – salary cap
all the different things that you just take into consideration – whatever we decide to do over the next few weeks will be based on football."
The Ravens have said they will allow the NFL to finish its investigation before making a decision about Tucker's status based on his off-the-field issues
"I would just say from a standpoint of the investigation and all that
I mean we don't know anything," Harbaugh said
so we can't make any decisions based on that."
JUSTIN TUCKER: Ravens GM calls allegations against kicker 'serious and concerning'
While the Ravens wait for that situation to play out
there appears to be a legitimate kicker competition brewing in Baltimore
Loop became the first-ever kicker drafted by the Ravens upon his selection with the 186th pick
and he made 6 of 9 kicks from 50-plus yards last season at Arizona
Tucker remains the most accurate kicker in NFL history and holds the record for the longest field goal ever made (66 yards)
he's coming off a season during which he made a career-low 73.3% of his field goal attempts
he had never made less than 82.5% of his kicks
Tucker has been in the facility working out the last couple of weeks
but will have a chance to compete directly with Loop beginning on May 27
$24 million contract extension he signed with the Ravens in 2022
Baltimore can create $4.2 million in 2025 cap space if it trades or releases Tucker after June 1
and was instructed to return to court at the end of the month
right-wing commentator Tucker Carlson tweeted support for Brand
and begged president Donald Trump to intervene on the alleged rapist's behalf
Four women who spoke to the outlets accused Brand of sexual assault in incidents between 2006 and 2013
while a significant number of others made claims of harassment
The day before the report was released, Brand took to social media in an apparent effort to deny the impending allegations
saying then that “mainstream media” operations with a “serious and concerted agenda” would soon release a story about him that had “metastasized into something criminal."
“I don’t mind them using my books and my stand-up to talk about my promiscuous consensual conduct in the past," Brand said in a September 15
"What I seriously refute are these very
Russell Brand leaving Westminster Magistrates' Court
where he was granted bail after appearing charged with one count each of rape
which said in a statement that it had been aware of at least one of the allegations against Brand since 2020
but Brand had “categorically and vehemently denied” it
“We now believe we were horribly misled by him,” the statement continued
“TW has terminated all professional ties to Brand."
After interviewing the suspect “under caution on three separate occasions,” officers passed the file of evidence to the UK’s Crown Prosecution Service (CPS)
with a recommendation that charges be filed
saying he was “incredibly grateful” for the "opportunity to defend these charges in court."

One CBS Sports writer believes former Michigan State head coach Mel Tucker was one of the worst hires in all of college football in the past decade
Will Backus of CBS Sports released a list of his top 15 worst coaching hires over the past decade
and to little surprise Tucker was included
Of the 15 coaches included in Backus' list
11 -- which ranks as the fourth worst among former Big Ten coaches included on the list behind only Purdue's Ryan Walters (No
Here's what Backus had to say about Tucker:
The inclusion of Tucker on this list is an obvious choice with his lack of success on the field outside of 2021 and the sexual harassment investigation as Backus stated
But I always like to point out that Tucker inherited a mess of a program
and did experience some success on the recruiting trail that
at one point before his off the field scandal
made me believe he would turn around Michigan State
We will never truly know if Tucker's plan for the program would have worked out in his favor due to the sexual harassment investigation and firing the followed
it's fair to include him on this list of worst coaching hires in the last decade

The St. Louis Blues will be without defenseman Tyler Tucker for tonight’s decisive Game 7 clash against the Winnipeg Jets—a significant blow to a team counting on its blue line depth in a win-or-go-home matchup
The 25-year-old Tucker has emerged as a reliable presence on the back end this season
and key minutes that have helped stabilize the Blues’ defense
Tucker recorded just seven points but showcased his strong defensive prowess by recording 81 hits and 39 blocked shots in that limited time
He added a goal and 12 hits in the first three games of the series before going down with a lower-body injury
there is no public timeline on Tucker’s potential return outside of his “day-to-day” status
Ryan Suter is expected to remain in Tucker’s place in the lineup tonight, skating alongside fellow veteran Nick Leddy
Suter produced two goals and 15 points in 82 games this season—maintaining his streak of four consecutive seasons without missing a game—but was a healthy scratch in games two and three of the series
Suter has one assist and a minus-one rating while averaging 16:45 of ice time per game
Addressing the decision to initially scratch Ryan Suter and then reinsert him following Tucker’s injury
Blues head coach Jim Montgomery praised the veteran’s professionalism
noting that the team will benefit from Suter’s penalty-killing ability and wealth of experience
The 40-year-old has logged 137 career playoff games
While his days as a top-pairing workhorse are behind him
Suter’s veteran presence could prove invaluable in a high-stakes Game 7

there is another injury that they can lower their panic levels for
As Chicago Cubs fans desperately wait for further news on Shota Imanaga's injury
In the 9th inning of the Cubs' 4-0 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday, outfielder Kyle Tucker was spotted at second base getting his knee looked at
he was visited by the Cubs' training staff as they looked at his knee
Tucker appeared to be fine and stayed in for the remainder of the game
Tucker told reporters that he will be in the Cubs' starting lineup on Monday night against the San Francisco Giants
"I fell awkwardly on my right thigh. It didn’t feel the greatest, but I am alright. I am alright and I’ll be in the lineup tomorrow," Tucker told reporters following Sunday's game against the Brewers
With Imanaga likely to miss, at least, the next month of the season, the Cubs can't afford an injury to Tucker. Even with Pete Crow-Armstrong appearing to be reaching a superstar level of offensive production
Tucker's success at the top of the Cubs' lineup is what is leading to success throughout the order
With the Cubs likely patching together their starting rotation going forward for the next month
the Cubs have a superstar in their lineup to do so
Tucker could ill afford to have any significant injury this season
Throughout the first month of the 2025 season
Tucker has made it clear that he will be the best free agent on the market next offseason
An injury wouldn't change that fact but it may play a factor in how much he were to get on the open market
With us already on the topic of wondering what the Cubs would do if there was an injury in their outfield
it's a fair time to point out that Moises Ballesteros would likely be the next position player up from Triple-A Iowa
but given the bench players the Cubs already have on the Major League level
Ballesteros would likely see time as the team's designated hitter with Seiya Suzuki moving to the field

The Ravens drafted a kicker with Justin Tucker under investigation
claims Tyler Loop’s future will be based on football
I’m sure they pivot in a hurry if the NFL’s investigation turns up sufficiently unsavory details
To their advantage in that regard is the fact that Tucker has already entered his decline
The Ravens selected him in the sixth round of the 2025 NFL Draft but have consistently evaded the obvious
At no point have they been willing to say that the decision had anything to do with the ongoing investigation
“From the standpoint of the investigation and all that, we don’t know anything”, Harbaugh said about the NFL’s investigation into Tucker, via the team’s website
the Ravens more than willing to embrace the role of ostrich in this case
“We haven’t been given any information
He went on to say that since the Ravens don’t know any details about the investigation into Tucker
they “can’t make any decisions based on that
Every decision we make has to be based on football”
Until the league concludes its investigation and issues its findings
which I imagine will be before roster cuts
Justin Tucker faces numerous allegations of sexual misconduct while receiving therapeutic massages
He has naturally denied all wrongdoing; as of yet
the NFL has revealed no details of its findings
brings to mind that of Browns QB Deshaun Watson
The league suspended him for 11 games after finding the accusations against him credible
“You’ve got a rookie kicker in [Tyler Loop] here
all the different things that you just take into consideration – whatever we decide to do over the next few weeks would be based on football”
Tucker only connected on 22 of his 30 field goal attempts
He has hit below 90 percent for three consecutive seasons now
2024 marking his lowest conversion rate since 2015
he was the only player in NFL history with a career percentage north of 90
The five leading kickers in field goal percentage are all active
Long considered the greatest kicker both active and of all time
Justin Tucker is arguably ceding the former to Boswell
He led the NFL with 41 made field goals last season out of 44 attempts
he connected on 13-of-15 from 50-plus yards
that would have been the most in NFL history
Tucker has only reached double digits once with 10 in 2016

The plan will serve as a comprehensive roadmap for the future of the Department inclusive of forward-thinking goals and initiatives to help ensure the FDNY remains the nation's premier all-hazards emergency response agency
The strategic plan will also help guide policy and operational improvements to continue bringing the department into the 21st century
The Strategic Plan focuses on four critical areas:
"The 2025 Strategic Plan is a fabulous tool for the FDNY to map its future as an all-hazards emergency response agency," said Fire Commissioner Robert S
"We are focused on integrating Fire and EMS
and investing in our members' health and safety
our Department is strong and we remain steadfast in our mission of saving life and property
and we are better trained and more prepared than ever
The initiatives in this plan will prepare us for good days and bad
and allow us to continue to be the Best and Bravest for decades to come."
The Strategic Plan was created by uniformed and civilian members

playAdam Schefter: Justin Tucker's future with the Ravens is in jeopardy (0:45)Adam Schefter reports on Justin Tucker's future with the Ravens after the team drafted Arizona kicker Tyler Loop
OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- After weeks of working out kickers all over the country, Baltimore Ravens senior special teams coach Randy Brown had a clear-cut message for the team heading into the draft
Drafting Loop was the first sign that the team was thinking about life without the NFL's most accurate kicker. The Ravens released Tucker
who is being investigated by the league for sexual misconduct
"Sometimes football decisions are incredibly difficult
and this is one of those instances," DeCosta said in a statement
we have made the tough decision to release Justin Tucker
Justin created many significant and unforgettable moments in Ravens history
resilience and extraordinary talent made him one of the league's best kickers for over a decade
We are grateful for Justin's many contributions while playing for the Ravens
We sincerely wish him and his family the very best in this next chapter of their lives."
The Ravens had previously drafted four specialists in their history -- three punters and one long-snapper -- and all won their jobs as rookies
Loop's strong leg and consistent swing separated him from the other college prospects and made him the top candidate to become Tucker's potential successor
It didn't matter that Loop's field goal percentage declined in all four years at Arizona
When the Ravens put on tape of Loop kicking
"He's one of these guys [who is] a kicking nerd
and you like to see that," Ravens coach John Harbaugh said
"He's really into every detail and technique
and he studied Justin a lot and a lot of other guys
The Ravens' rookie minicamp last weekend marked the first time when most team officials met Loop and saw him kick in person
and that will help us address what our decision-making is going to be moving forward," DeCosta said before minicamp
Harbaugh said Loop delivered a strong first impression Sunday at rookie minicamp
where he watched Loop kick in person for the first time
and the way the ball comes off his foot is impressive."
The Ravens selected Arizona kicker Tyler Loop with the No
186 pick of the 2025 draft. AP Photo/Charlie RiedelLoop can't count the number of times he met with the Ravens during the predraft process
but it was enough to let him know that Baltimore was definitely interested
He met with a scout at the Hula Bowl in January and then spoke with Brown during the specialist workout at the NFL scouting combine in February
Loop also had a private workout with Brown in Arizona
The moment when Loop felt like he was going to Baltimore was after the New England Patriots used a sixth-round pick on Andres Borregales
who was the first kicker drafted this year
the Ravens phoned Loop to inform him that he was going to be the No
total elation getting the call," Loop said
When NFL teams draft kickers, it's usually with the intent of them playing immediately. Of the 19 kickers taken over the past 10 drafts, 14 of them were their respective team's full-time kicker as a rookie. The last kicker who was drafted and didn't play for that team in his first season was Justin Rohrwasser
who was selected in the fifth round by New England in 2020 and cut before the start of the regular season
none of those draft picks had to replace a kicker like Tucker
who holds the NFL marks for best career field goal percentage (89.1%) and longest field goal (66 yards)
Tucker finished the 2024 season with a career-low 73.3% field goal percentage
Asked how much pressure he would feel to follow in Tucker's footsteps
"I think it's really exciting more than pressure
just because it gives you something to shoot for
Loop has dealt with challenges during his college career
He has had three different special teams coaches
which is a big reason his success rate went from 100% as a freshman (12-of-12) to 78.3% in his final season (18-of-23)
Loop showed his leg strength with a 62-yard field goal
He then solidified himself as ESPN draft analyst Mel Kiper Jr.'s top kicker at the NFL combine
where he hit 13 of 14 field goal attempts (93.3%) and finished by making a 60-yarder
"I'd say the one thing that I hang my hat on is being a student of craft," Loop said
"There are days where you're not in a groove
you can always fall back on your mechanics to be successful and make kicks."
When the Ravens were deciding on taking a kicker, they could have gone with Florida State's Ryan Fitzgerald, who led college football in field goal percentage by making all 13 attempts, or Pittsburgh's Ben Sauls
who kicked at the Steelers' home stadium and knows about playing in the AFC North weather conditions
"Randy believes in you," Harbaugh told Loop on the phone after the Ravens drafted him

Defendant's Answer to First Amended Complaint 042825 by wells.foster on Scribd
LANSING — Former Michigan State University football coach Mel Tucker maintains he had a mutual
consensual relationship with sexual assault advocate Brenda Tracy
Tucker made the assertions in a filing on April 28 in response to Tracy's lawsuit filed in October
Tucker was fired as the Spartan coach in September of 2023, after a complaint that Tracy filed with MSU in December 2022, came to light in a USA Today story
Tracy said Tucker made a series of unwelcome sexual advances over the course of their year-long business dealings
culminating in a phone call in April 2022 in which he masturbated without her consent
Tracy's October lawsuit claimed Tucker intentionally tried to ruin her public image and reputation with false statements
including his claims that she made up the allegations in a plot to extort him and the school for money

MORE: Ex-LPD Lt. who mowed lawns on city time sentenced; concerns raised over ‘lack of remorse’
Tucker in his response claims he was under the impression that Tracy reciprocated his feelings and he did not intend to ruin her reputation
the parties were in an entirely mutual and consensual relationship
willing participants in the discussion and the phone call," Tucker's attorneys wrote about the April 2022 phone call
Tucker's attorneys also said he did not act with malice or break contracts with Tracy after she rejected his advances
He also denies accessing her personal email and accounts without permission and said that her conversations with her deceased assistant were not subject to privacy
Tracy's lawsuit is one in a series of legal developments since Tucker was fired
Last month, Tucker's attorney, Andrew Abood, filed a notice of intent to sue MSU if the university did not cover Tucker's legal costs in litigation with Tracy
The seven-month gap between when Tracy filed the lawsuit against Tucker in Ingham County Circuit Court in October and his response in late April was due
to what Tracy's attorney said was difficulty serving Tucker with the lawsuit
said it took months of trying to serve Tucker with the complaint
forcing her to ask the court for alternative methods of serving him
Messages were left with Truszkowski Thursday morning
Tracy claimed Tucker defamed her with false statements during MSU's Office of Institutional Equity investigation and to the public
Tucker argued that any statements made to those investigators - including alleging Tracy exploits the men she works with for money - were made in his defense and were "not materially false." Tucker denied making any false allegations against Tracy publicly
Tracy also said Tucker broke a contract for a speaking engagement with her after he masturbated during a phone call with her and she told him they would never talk about it again and that they were only friends
Tracy was scheduled to speak to the MSU football team months after the incident
a presentation Tucker "abruptly" canceled and moved to January 2023
Tucker denied that she was scheduled to speak in July 2022 and that there was no existing contract between them
Tracy also claims Tucker intentionally ruined her long-time business relationships by releasing private conversations between herself and her deceased assistant
were released to interfere with her business relationships
tarnish her reputation and coerce her to withdrawal the misconduct complaint she made against him to the university
Tucker said the conversations were only outlined to then-interim President Teresa Woodruff and the MSU Board of Trustees
He said he didn't know how the national media was made aware of the conversations and did not act with malice when he sent them to MSU officials
He also said that he came into possession of the text messages by legal means
She's also taken steps to sue MSU by filing a notice of intent with the Michigan Court of Claims
Her attorney characterized the move as keep the option to sue open if needed

New head football coach Mel Tucker speaks at his introductory press conference at the Breslin Student Events Center on Feb
Michigan State University reported itself to the NCAA for alleged recruiting violations under former football head coach Mel Tucker
triggering a new investigation into the university
according to three people with knowledge of the decision
The university announced the investigation last month
but didn’t give any details on how it came about.
The three people spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the ongoing investigation
pointing to a previous statement from the athletics department that "Michigan State athletics has cooperated with the NCAA to review a potential matter concerning the football program under the former staff and will continue to do so for the duration of the process."
The self-imposed probe could further complicate MSU’s escalating dispute with the former coach
who has brought multiple lawsuits against the university and its leaders since his termination in 2023
It’s unclear if the NCAA investigation, or the circumstances surrounding it, have anything to do with the announcement today of Athletic Director Alan Haller’s departure from MSU.
Also unknown is the contents of the investigation
as MSU President Kevin Guskiewicz declined to provide details when he first disclosed the investigation in an interview with The Detroit News
or when pressed in a subsequent interview with The State News
suggest that the alleged recruiting issues were confined to the Tucker era.
“We're trying to make the case that this is a whole new coaching staff," Guskiewicz told The Detroit News
who took over as football head coach for the 2024 season.
Tucker was hired by MSU in 2020 with a 10-year
$95 million contract that made him the second highest paid coach in the sport
Tucker garnered national accolades for his team’s impressive record
His standing diminished in subsequent seasons as his on-field performance steadily declined
though his downfall was ultimately brought on by his conduct off the field
Tucker was suspended amid allegations of sexual harassment from Brenda Tracy
an anti-sexual violence advocate he had hired to speak to his players
he was fired by MSU because — though he denied the accusation of harassment — he admitted to what he called a consensual relationship with Tracy
A university investigation later found that he had sexually harassed her.
Tucker has since disputed his termination in a federal lawsuit against MSU
He also recently filed his intent to sue the university in state court
arguing that MSU should pay his legal fees in a separate defamation lawsuit he’s facing from Tracy

LOUIS — In a physical first-round series between the St
the Blues will be without defenseman Tyler Tucker for at least Game 5
Tucker did not practice with the Blues on Tuesday before the team’s flight to Winnipeg for Game 5 on Wednesday
coach Jim Montgomery said that he is considered day-to-day
Tucker was injured with 4:17 remaining in the Blues’ 5-1 win over Winnipeg in Game 4
He was chasing a puck down a puck in the corner and
attempting to avoid Jets forward Brandon Tanev
fell awkwardly and was wincing as he fell to the ice
lay on the ice briefly before being helped off by Blues athletic trainer Ray Barile and teammate Oskar Sundqvist
Tucker has played three games in the series
jumping into the lineup in a Game 2 loss to the Jets in Winnipeg when the Blues used 11 forwards and seven defensemen
they went back to 12 forwards and six defensemen and chose to keep Tucker in the lineup ahead of veteran Ryan Suter
and he had a goal in the Blues’ win in Game 3
He’s one of the Blues’ most physical players with 12 hits in those three games
who was a healthy scratch in both Games 3 and 4
He practiced on the third pair Tuesday with Nick Leddy
I’ve got to say it was hard to do when you respect the player so much and what he’s done in the league for years
and how much he’s helped us this year,” Montgomery said
There are no statistics available for this player

the two hits have racked up nearly 400 million Spotify streams
Fast-forward to the present, and Tucker is fresh off the release of his debut album, What Not To, which features the buzzy single “3,2,1.” To celebrate this milestone

We also hosted Tucker for a live Q&A where he revealed his rise to fame
and the creative approach behind his new album
If you were to ask me a year ago if I could imagine going overseas and playing shows
Getting that number one is something that I was dreaming about for as long as I could remember
and starting the year off with that was pretty cool
I kinda put it down for a little bit to focus on sports
I ended up going to college in Montana to play football
but after breaking my leg for the third time
I thought it was best that I hang up the cleats
So I moved back home and I was pretty lost
I remember sitting my mom down one day and saying
“I don’t know what I’m doing with my life.” She goes
“Go play your piano and quit bawlin’ at me.”
I went and wrote my first song that night and didn’t look back
It’s my first big project and I hope people like it as much as I do
The way I explain the album is that it offers a glimpse into who I am as a person
But everything is very intentional and connected
even down to the tracklisting and why I put songs in the order I did
and I didn’t want my projects to be a bunch of singles on a piece of paper that you listen to
and it’s gonna be fun to see you guys figure out why one song comes after another
You can dive into every lyric, verse, and hook of What Not To
The Ravens drafted a kicker for the first time in their 30-year franchise history, which creates more uncertainty surrounding Justin Tucker's future in Baltimore
Baltimore selected Arizona's Tyler Loop in the sixth round of the NFL draft Saturday
which comes three months after Tucker was first accused of sexual misconduct
Tucker is facing allegations of inappropriate behavior by 16 massage therapists from eight high-end spas and wellness centers
Asked how the addition of Loop impacts Tucker's roster spot
"I haven't really thought about that at this point
I just thought [Loop] was a really talented player and it made sense for us to do that for a lot of different reasons
We've told you guys multiple times this spring that we would look at kickers
and so for us it's like any other position
Team officials have previously said they would make a decision on Tucker after the NFL finalized its investigation
Tucker has twice publicly disputed the allegations
DeCosta said Saturday that he has no idea what the timetable will be with the investigation
It's also unclear whether Loop will be competing with Tucker for the kicker job or if the expectation is Loop will be the Ravens' kicker this season
"I think that right now they're both on the roster," DeCosta said
"It was a situation for us where we're just trying to find the best football players
He'll be here next week [and we will] get a chance to see his leg and that will help us address what our decision-making is going to be moving forward."
Loop was so confident that he would get selected by Baltimore that he purchased a Ravens T-shirt a couple of days ago
He put it on after getting selected by Baltimore
Asked how much pressure he would feel if he competed against or followed in the footsteps of the NFL's most accurate kicker
We always want to be chasing perfection and learning how to adjust well and make kicks
And getting to follow in the footsteps of a guy like that has been so elite and get to compete with him and maybe learn from him -- that gets me fired up."
Known for one of the strongest legs in this draft
Loop has converted six of nine attempts from 50-plus yards
Loop hit 13 of 14 field goal attempts (93.3%) and finished by making a 60-yarder
Two of the kickers that Loop has looked up to are Nick Folk and Tucker
Loop watched Tucker in college because he was a Texas fan
"I admire a lot of parts of their games," Loop said
I've got things that I can do to learn from them
but I've also got my own style and my own kicking and just figuring out what's going to work to be successful in Baltimore and kicks and win games.'"
but he is coming off the worst season of his 13-year career
The NFL's investigation involving Tucker began in February, a source told ESPN. He has been accused by the women of sexually inappropriate behavior
they likely will need to designate him as a post-June-1 cut to split the $7.5 million in dead money over two seasons and gain $4.2 million in salary cap space this year
The Ravens are the last of the 32 teams in the NFL to draft a kicker
The moment Vladimir Guerrero Jr.’s extension with the Blue Jays became official, the clock began to tick on Kyle Tucker’s countdown to free agency
where he will be the undisputed gem of this year’s class
That title likely would have belonged to Guerrero had he not signed a 14-year, $500 million deal to play out the rest of his career in Toronto
the only Major League city he has called home throughout his career
Is it possible Tucker will sign an extension of his own with the Cubs
taking him off the open market before he ever gets there
Most execs polled seemed to believe it’s highly unlikely he signs during the season
“He’s likely to be the best player on the market by a decent margin; I can’t imagine him giving up the opportunity for a bidding war to potentially take place for his services,” one National League executive said
expressing doubts about an in-season extension
cited Guerrero’s contract as the floor for a deal coming together prior to free agency despite the fact that Tucker -- who turned 28 in January -- is two years older than Guerrero
“We are talking about a left-handed hitter who produces similar WAR and more consistent offensive value,” the AL exec said
5.4 bWAR and 149 games player per season from 2021-23
the right fielder missed three months with a right shin fracture after fouling a ball off his leg
playing an average of 159 games per season
Tucker was traded from the Astros to the Cubs in December, with Chicago sending Cam Smith (MLB’s No. 55 overall prospect), Isaac Paredes and Hayden Wesneski to Houston for one guaranteed year of Tucker’s services.
“If the Cubs don’t extend him, that may go down as an all-time terrible trade,” an NL executive said.
It would make sense for the Cubs to try extending Tucker before he can negotiate with any other teams, but given how close he is to free agency and the fact that he’s been a member of the team for less than five months, it could be tricky for Chicago to get a deal done before the offseason.
“If he wants to stay in Chicago, he can always sign there in the winter,” an NL exec said. “Prior to that, I imagine it would take a massive overpay to get him to forgo an opportunity on the open market. Since he’s a couple years older than Vlad and doesn’t have the same tie-in with the Cubs that Vlad has with the Jays -- or with the country, for that matter -- I would be surprised if they would be willing to go far enough during the season to make him bite early.”
While some reports have indicated that Tucker and the Cubs have engaged in some talks during the season, the majority of executives around the league believe he’s ultimately headed for free agency. Two execs believe the Cubs can get something done if they're willing to pay him, though it’s obviously going to take a massive contract to close the deal.
“If they’re indeed talking, that at least shows some interest on both sides,” an NL executive said. “The Cubs are a great place to play; I’m sure they want to keep him, which was part of the value of trading for him. I don’t see why it wouldn’t be a possibility.”
“He’s with a team who can do it, so I think he will,” an AL executive said, adding that Tucker could possibly exceed Guerrero’s contract in terms of average annual value.
Another NL executive wouldn’t predict whether Tucker will or won’t sign an in-season extension, but whether the three-time All-Star makes it to free agency or not, one thing is certain:
“I think he was happy to see the Vladdy deal,” the exec said.
The Baltimore Ravens entered rookie minicamp surrounded by intrigue—and not just because of the new faces. For the first time in franchise history, the Ravens drafted a kicker, selecting Tyler Loop out of Arizona in the sixth round
That alone would’ve raised eyebrows. Add in the ongoing NFL investigation involving veteran kicker Justin Tucker
and the move has become one of the offseason’s most talked-about storylines
But when head coach John Harbaugh addressed the media this weekend
Asked directly about how the team will handle having both Loop and Tucker in the building
Harbaugh made one thing crystal clear: whatever happens next won’t be driven by speculation
“Every decision we make has to be based on football,” Harbaugh said
You’ve got a rookie kicker [Tyler Loop] in here
all the different things that you just take into consideration—whatever we decide to do over the next few weeks would be based on football.”
(Update: The Ravens have released Justin Tucker.)
while Harbaugh insists this is strictly a football decision
The NFL’s ongoing investigation into allegations against Tucker is still very much part of the story—even if the Ravens can’t publicly factor it in (yet)
Harbaugh’s message was clear: this isn’t just a courtesy competition
The Ravens didn’t spend a sixth-round pick on Tyler Loop for depth—they did it because they’re seriously evaluating their options at kicker
Tucker may be the most accurate—and possibly best—kicker in league history
but last season gave Baltimore reason to reassess
His 73.3% field goal rate in 2024 was a career low
and the situation becomes even murkier—though Harbaugh insists none of that is factoring into the decision-making
impressed at the Combine with his consistency
and fits the Ravens’ special teams spirit to a tee
Harbaugh called him a “kicking nerd,” which in this building is very much a compliment
Whether they roll with the rookie or stick with the veteran
the choice will come down to what they see on the field—and who they trust most when the game’s on the line
the Ravens are preparing for change—and whether it’s Loop or Tucker this fall
the decision is coming sooner than later..
That alone would’ve raised eyebrows. Add in the ongoing NFL investigation involving veteran kicker Justin Tucker
“Every decision we make has to be based on football,” Harbaugh said
(Update: The Ravens have released Justin Tucker.)
Of course, while Harbaugh insists this is strictly a football decision, there’s no ignoring the backdrop. The NFL’s ongoing investigation into allegations against Tucker is still very much part of the story—even if the Ravens can’t publicly factor it in (yet).
Harbaugh’s message was clear: this isn’t just a courtesy competition. The Ravens didn’t spend a sixth-round pick on Tyler Loop for depth—they did it because they’re seriously evaluating their options at kicker.
Tucker may be the most accurate—and possibly best—kicker in league history, but last season gave Baltimore reason to reassess. His 73.3% field goal rate in 2024 was a career low. He ended the year on a high note, but the inconsistency was hard to ignore. Add in the investigation, and the situation becomes even murkier—though Harbaugh insists none of that is factoring into the decision-making.
Loop, meanwhile, brings real intrigue. He nailed a 62-yard bomb last year, impressed at the Combine with his consistency, and fits the Ravens’ special teams spirit to a tee. Harbaugh called him a “kicking nerd,” which in this building is very much a compliment. Loop’s not shying away from the spotlight, either. He sees the Tucker competition as fuel, not a burden.
The Ravens will sort it out soon enough. Whether they roll with the rookie or stick with the veteran, the choice will come down to what they see on the field—and who they trust most when the game’s on the line.
One way or another, the Ravens are preparing for change—and whether it’s Loop or Tucker this fall, the decision is coming sooner than later... for football reasons only. Obviously.
Justin Tucker's future in Baltimore is hanging by a thread.

While Sanders was a highly touted prospect throughout the entire 2024 college football season and pretty much all the way through the 2025 NFL Draft process
he plummeted to being a fifth round pick by the Cleveland Browns
Shedeur wasn’t even the top quarterback selected by the Browns as they also picked Oregon QB Dillon Gabriel in Round 3
None of it made any sense in the moment… especially to Mel Kiper Jr
we are hearing more stories and more reporting about the negative views that NFL teams may have had about Shedeur Sanders that explained his perceived fall
And that not only included worries about his play on the field
but how he conducted himself off the field as well
College football analyst Ross Tucker appeared on the Dan Patrick Show on Wednesday and told one story of his own
When he called the Colorado-Colorado State game for CBS this year
he says that Sanders skipped a planned production meeting with him
only to see him in the back of a pickup truck afterwards
And it was the second time in the same week that Tucker thought he would sit down with Shedeur Sanders only to not have it happen

“We weren’t really given a reason but we did not talk to Shedeur at the production meetings
I walk out of the hotel and there’s a pickup truck in front of the hotel and Shedeur is just sitting in the back of the pickup truck,” Tucker said
‘what did you think of Shedeur?’ And I said
‘I didn’t get to talk to him.’ Maybe he’s the greatest kid ever
but I told them the story and they just kind of nodded their head
how many stories are there like that in which Shedeur did things that were not customary
it certainly seemed like that was the deal with a lot of the combine interviews and meetings with teams
I think it makes them very nervous that already in college he was getting out of things that you’re supposed to be doing,” Tucker added
"The Knicks don't belong in the same gym with us."
The discussion of an antisemitic sign at Barstool Sports' Philadelphia bar continues to evolve

Tucker 'just here to play some baseball'April 8th
CHICAGO -- The Cubs made an aggressive push to acquire star outfielder Kyle Tucker over the winter
with this season’s goal of making the playoffs as the driving
The fact that Tucker can hit free agency next offseason was a situation that could be tabled until necessary
That will not stop the conversation surrounding Tucker’s future -- in fact, it will remain one of the underlying storylines of this Cubs campaign until he signs his next contract. And now that the Blue Jays agreed to a reported 14-year, $500 million extension with star Vladimir Guerrero Jr.
there is another data point for Tucker’s camp to consider
“It’s what he wanted to do,” Tucker said of Guerrero's extension before Monday’s 7-0 win over the Rangers
“I’m sure he loves playing in Toronto and everything
I’m here to play this year and play for the Cubs.”
Tucker added that he will “see where everything goes” as this one-year period with the North Siders progresses
He shrugged when asked if he had any kind of soft deadline established between the Cubs and his representatives for any extension negotiations
leaning on a repeated refrain that he is “just here to play baseball.”
Tucker has given Cubs fans a glimpse into why the team’s front office agreed to send highly-touted prospect Cam Smith
slugging third baseman Isaac Paredes and righty Hayden Wesneski to the Astros for only one guaranteed season with the right fielder
Tucker is currently the MLB leader in total bases (37) and in hits (17), and the National League leader in runs (14), RBIs (16) and OPS (1.165), while also tied for the lead in homers (five). He has a .327/.453/.712 slash line and just picked up the first NL Player of the Week award of his career
Tucker’s strong start came after he went just 3-for-30 for the Cubs in Spring Training
“I hope when we go to Spring Training with Kyle next year
that he’s not going to have to play [Spring Training games],” Cubs manager Craig Counsell quipped
“It’s been fun watching Kyle at the peak of who he is as an offensive player.”
That prompted a reporter to ask: “So you’re saying you think he’ll be at Spring Training with you next year?”
I shouldn’t have said that,” Counsell said to laughter
president of baseball operations Jed Hoyer was asked about trying to extend Tucker before next winter
“Should we count my 'no comments' on this question
See how many we get to in six months?” Hoyer said with a smile
“He’s a great player -- that’s why we traded for him
Clearly he’s the kind of player you want to build a lineup around
I think any conversations we have with him

For perspective, Guerrero is 26 years old, plays first base and has produced 21.6 wins above replacement (per Baseball Reference) over his seven seasons in the Major Leagues. Tucker plays the outfield and boasts more speed, but will turn 29 years old ahead of next season. He has produced 23.8 bWAR in his eight MLB seasons, including 20.9 over the 2021-24 seasons with Houston.
Counsell recently described Tucker as a “quiet guy,” and the outfielder has indeed displayed a low-maintenance approach both with his daily work and around his teammates. He seems to have the kind of steady personality capable of producing, even as chatter about his contract situation persists and potentially increases amid a Cubs’ late-season playoff push.
“Everybody’s got their [situation],” Counsell said. “It’s part of being an athlete and being a professional athlete. The first week’s a pretty good example for him. He seemed to handle it pretty well.”
Hoyer said Tucker will have the opportunity to see what it is like playing for the Cubs and at Wrigley Field over the next several months. That will be good information for both Tucker and the Cubs, if they attempt to keep him off the open market. As Hoyer said: “Anyone wants a player like that long term.”
Tucker was asked if using this season to gain a greater understanding of the Cubs’ organization and Chicago is important for him.
“Right now … I can’t really give you anything,” Tucker said. “But it’s been great ever since I’ve been over here. Everyone’s been super nice and helpful and everything. The hospitality’s been great and obviously, you guys can walk around this facility, it’s really nice.
“I don’t know. I’m just here to play some baseball and see what happens after that.”

The Chicago Cubs have long needed a superstar-caliber player to add into their lineup and be the face of the franchise for the next 8-10 years
The team had that with the likes of Kris Bryant
but those three have been gone since the middle of the 2021 season
Chicago went out and acquired the player that fans are hoping will be the next face of the franchise
and that player is right fielder Kyle Tucker
Tucker was acquired from the Houston Astros for a trio of players
and he is the superstar-level player that was missing from the Cubs lineup
He has showcased his greatness in the first month of the season and is a major reason why the Cubs are going to come out of April having played baseball's hardest schedule and having a record that is over .500
There is one very important question that not only Cubs fans
What team will Kyle Tucker be playing for next year and beyond
Tucker is a free agent at the end of the season and if he makes it there before reaching an extension with Chicago
he will be the most coveted player on the market
All of the big market teams like the Yankees
will be hounding Tucker and looking to add him to their lineup
Cub fans received good news on Monday during a podcast from ESPN Chicago's David Kaplan
who gave an update on the possibility of Tucker and the Cubs reaching an extension
"I'm hearing that the Cubs have wrapped their brain around whatever it cost we're paying it, and they want to extend Tucker." said Kaplan when discussing the likelihood of an extension between the two sides
It is no secret Tucker's next contract will be somewhere around $450-500 million
it will be well over double the largest contract in franchise history
$184 million deal prior to the 2016 season
If the two sides are able to agree on an extension to keep Tucker in Chicago
it will signal that the Cubs are serious about contending in the NL for many years to come

Ravens senior special teams coach Randy Brown has been collecting air miles
so much so that coach John Harbaugh compared him to Santa Claus
as he’s traveled all over the country to assess draft-eligible kickers
After 13 seasons of relying on Justin Tucker
the Ravens might have a different kicker on the field when the team decides to line up for a field goal
so we will be prepared to do that on draft day if we feel like we need to and if the right guy is there.”
The Ravens said they will not make a decision about his status until the NFL investigation is over
The Baltimore Banner thanks its sponsors. Become one.
they are assessing their internal rankings of who’s available in the draft
there are a lot of layers to that whole conversation
but it’s something we would have to do no matter what,” Harbaugh said at the team’s predraft press conference.
General manager Eric DeCosta did not commit to adding a kicker through the draft
He pointed out that the Ravens have had success by finding undrafted free agents
But at least one kicker has been drafted every year since 2012
Three have been picked in each of the last two drafts
And the NFL combine has added a specialists workout
It’s a workout that looks very different from the bench presses and 40-yard dashes the other players go through because it’s a position that is very different from any other on the field — making it hard to evaluate
Luckily, the Ravens are one of the few teams with a coach like Brown who is dedicated to specialists, former Ravens special teams coordinator and longtime specialists coach Gary Zauner said
But Zauner and former NFL kicker-turned-coach John Carney took us behind the scenes of the evaluation of a kicker
When a player attends the combine, he is looking to show his strength, power, explosion, speed, agility, flexibility and balance. Kickers need to show the same things, but they might present themselves differently, said Carney, who runs The Art of Kicking Academy in Carlsbad
kickers need strength and speed in their legs to kick the ball high and far
balance and agility to control where the ball goes
But they will focus on strengthening different areas of the body
which is not something that players who don’t play a kicking sport have
Carney said some kickers have found success without it
That’s because they’ve figured out one specific skill and become very
There are many philosophies and techniques in the kicking world
Sometimes coaches are scared away by unique approaches
although Carney said he believes Brown is the type of coach who can identify talent no matter what
Carney and Zauner agree that one thing trumps all: repeatability
Zauner said you want to see that a kicker has a repetitive action
their plant and how they get their foot on the ball
and then that nice rotation you get on the ball.”
And then you want to see those things hold up no matter the situation
from weather to playing surface to levels of exhaustion
Zauner said the amount they miss by matters
Because good kickers miss only by a foot to a yard
This is perhaps the most important part of the evaluation: the mental aspect
the difference between college kickers who make it in the NFL and those who don’t comes down to the “six inches between their ears.”
There are a lot of aspects to the mental side of it: toughness
Carney said one of the most common things evaluators ask kickers is “Tell us when you had a kick that you missed that was an important kick
a kick that meant something to the game.” And the follow-up question is
his ability to correct and his ability to move on
That’s also something coaches watch for when they see players in person
He said he will play little “mental games,” like letting kickers warm up with one ball and switching the ball to see if it shakes them
He’ll start them out with the farthest kicks to see how they rebound if they miss
And he also watches their response to the rest of their team
“The thing that sometimes people don’t think about is the snapper and the holder,” Zauner said
if you don’t have a real good snapper and you don’t have a great holder
Even if things go well and the kicker makes a field goal
there’s a lot to learn from watching him in person
He likes to observe how the demeanor changes over the course of a workout
“You can tell [by] about kick five or six or seven who can stay locked in and focus and the guys that start to lose it
and they start getting a little distracted
and their process starts to vary a little bit,” Carney said
Although they don’t need to stay 100% locked in because that could lead to mental burnout
they have to think about game situations and the changing environment to “see if wind’s changing
One of Zauner’s favorite questions when evaluating a kicker is “How many game-winners have you kicked?”
Sometimes the kickers at the best programs have the least experience because their team is always up big
“Coaches can practice — you see out at the field
it’s not the same as being in the stadium and saying
you got to make this to win the Super Bowl.’”
Carney noticed that one of the important experiences a kicker should have is kicking in adverse weather conditions
Back when the Pac-12 was a power conference
Carney saw a lot of exceptional college kickers fail at the NFL level
sleet and snow found in so many NFL stadiums
And the AFC North has all kinds of weather
Zauner and Carney agreed that many can be drawn to kickers with good legs
a touch kicker (“meaning they hit the ball really well; 99% of the time it just comes off the right part of the foot because they’re just that talented,” Carney said) will find the most success
And then they need to combine that with intelligence
knowing how to pick the right target lines and working with the elements instead of against them
Zauner was not as impressed with the draft pool as others
Although he said he hasn’t seen all of the kickers live
he feels there are some who deserve a look
Only four kickers were invited to the combine
They all came from college football: Andres Borregales from Miami
Ben Sauls from Pittsburgh and Tyler Loop from Arizona
The specialists’ workout featured nine more kickers
Fitzgerald had the best field goal percentage last season (100%)
Borregales has the highest career field goal percentage (86%)
Loop has hit the longest field goal in a game (62 yards)
He and Fitzgerald both hit 60-yard field goals at the combine
had the most reliable performance (14-for-14)
Although Sauls doesn’t top any of the categories
he has something the rest of them don’t: experience kicking at the Pittsburgh Steelers’ Acrisure Stadium
It’s one of the most difficult places to kick in the NFL
They lost last year to a team that didn’t score a touchdown but made six field goals
Sauls is unique in that he’s a left-footed kicker
That may scare teams away because of the work it will take to change the field goal operation
The Ravens may look to add a young kicker whom they can develop
especially because they have a coach like Brown
So should the Ravens need a new kicker this season
when they hope to take another shot at reaching the Super Bowl
they might look to available veterans who have proven they can make a kick with the season on the line
