Baltimore Ravens president Sashi Brown said Sunday that the team won't make a determination on kicker Justin Tucker's future with the franchise until the NFL has finished its investigation on allegations of sexual misconduct, Jamison Hensley of ESPN reports.

"From our standpoint, I think we want to make sure that we have a great understanding of the facts, an actual understanding of the facts, hear both sides of the situation, and that we allow the investigation to properly be conducted and concluded, and make decisions based on the full information," Brown told Baltimore-area reporters at the annual league meeting.

Tucker has been accused of inappropriate behavior by 16 massage therapists from eight Baltimore spas and wellness centers, according to The Baltimore Banner. All the incidents reportedly occurred during sessions from 2012 to 2016, Tucker's first five seasons in the NFL.

Investigators for the NFL began speaking last month with some of the women who have accused Tucker of sexual misconduct, a source told ESPN. In 2021, it took five months for the league and the players' union to finalize a settlement in Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson's sexual assault case.

On Tuesday, Brown indicated that the Ravens have received "periodic updates" from the league.
