Report: Chiefs signing Justin Tucker to practice squad | theScore

The Kansas City Chiefs are expected to sign veteran kicker Justin Tucker to their practice squad, according to a source cited by Sam McDowell of The Kansas City Star. Tucker last played in the NFL in 2024. The Baltimore Ravens released him in June 2025 after allegations of inappropriate sexual behavior toward massage therapists. He was suspended for the first 10 games of the 2025 season for violating the league’s personal conduct policy, but did not end up signing with another team that year. The move comes as Kansas City kicker Harrison Butker struggles: he went 1-for-3 on field goals in last week’s loss to the Seattle Seahawks and is 4-for-7 over the team’s last two games. His field-goal conversion rate this season is 68.8% (11/16), a career-low. Tucker, a seven-time Pro Bowler, has a 89.1% career field-goal success rate, though his 2024 conversion was 73.3%. The Chiefs (5-1) host the Denver Broncos (5-2) Sunday in an AFC West matchup.
