KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- The Kansas City Chiefs signed Justin Tucker to their practice squad on Wednesday, giving the five-time All-Pro kicker a second chance in the NFL after serving a 10-game suspension last year for violating the league's personal conduct policy.
Tucker spent 13 seasons with the Ravens, earning a reputation as one of the league's best kickers, before his tenure in Baltimore ended in controversy. The Baltimore Banner reported in 2025 that he had been accused of sexual misconduct by 16 massage therapists at high-end spas, accusations that Tucker called "unequivocally false" and "tabloid fodder."
The Ravens released him that May. And while Tucker was never criminally charged or sued in civil court, the NFL suspended him for the first 10 games of the 2025 season, which Tucker served as a free agent; he became eligible for reinstatement last November.

Carolina at Green Bay (-3.5): Bryce Young struggled vs. Tampa Bay after the best start of his career over the first five games, and Carolina unraveled in a lopsided loss. The Panthers have to fix things quickly in a short week. Two missed field goals and too many penalties cost the Packers against the Lions. Jordan Love has to get Green Bay's red-zone offense going. Even without Micah Parsons, the defense has stepped up. The Packers have allowed just 13.5 points per game over the last four. Packers, 24-20.
