Two spas say they banned him. The Baltimore Banner published a detailed account of Tucker's alleged inappropriate behavior at Baltimore-area massage parlors, which the Banner noted led to him being banned from two establishments. Per The Banner, "Tucker's attorneys denied that he was banned In his response, Tucker smeared The Baltimore Banner's report, writing that their expose was "marked by journalistic failures at every turn.
He added that the Banner "was deliberately misconstruing events as nefarious which were not and were relying on third party speculation," to establish a "narrative The accounts detailed in The Banner's piece are from several women who the paper noted were unfamiliar with each other or their stories before The Baltimore Banner reached out to them.

Based on the precedent the NFL set with its poor response to that situation, plus a three-game suspension against quarterback Jameis Winston for "touching [an Uber driver] in an inappropriate and sexual manner without her consent," led arbiter Sue L.
Robinson to issue an absurdly light six-game suspension to Deshaun Watson in after evidence showed he "engaged in sexual assault as defined by the NFL against" four masseuses in the league's investigation.
