The Baltimore Ravens on Monday released veteran kicker Justin Tucker, who currently is the subject of an NFL investigation into allegations of improper conduct during massage therapy sessions.

The NFL said it would investigate, and the Ravens drafted kicker Tyler Loop late last month. On Sunday, coach John Harbaugh suggested a decision on Tucker might come before the NFL completed its inquiry.
