Last season, the accuracy took a big hit. And his reputation took a big hit as the sexual assault allegations kept piling up.
"Sometimes football decisions are incredibly difficult, and this is one of those instances," Ravens executive vice president and general manager Eric DeCosta said in a statement. "Considering our current roster, we have made the tough decision to release Justin Tucker.
"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."

Lewis the RB has a bunch of drugs... Replaceable cut him.
If you are replaceable and a criminal, the Ravens will cut you. If you are all pro. Then the ravens keep the criminals
