Justin Tucker has been married to his wife, Amanda Bass Tucker, for more than a decade, and she’s always been his biggest supporter. The former Baltimore Ravens player’s marriage made headlines in 2025 when allegations of inappropriate sexual behavior surfaced against him — but Amanda remained by her husband’s side through it all.
“The false allegations against Justin have caused so much hurt to our family,” Amanda said in a statement. “I believe my husband, and I love and support him fully.”
Three months after the accusations came to light against Justin, he was axed from the Ravens, the team’s general manager and executive vice president, Eric DeCosta, announced.
“Sometimes football decisions are incredibly difficult, and this is one of those instances. Considering our current roster, we have made the tough decision to release Justin Tucker,” Eric wrote. “Justin created many significant and unforgettable moments in Ravens history. His reliability, focus, drive, 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.”
