The Baltimore Ravens may have dropped a big hint about where they are going at the kicker position as Justin Tucker remains the subject of an NFL investigation.
The Ravens garnered attention Saturday by using a sixth-round pick on former Arizona kicker Tyler Loop. Loop was selected at No. 186 overall, marking the first time in franchise history that the Ravens have drafted a kicker.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter made it very clear that he believes the selection of a kicker is very telling. Schefter said that by drafting Loop, the Ravens are indicating that Tucker’s future with the organization is very much in doubt.
“Here, the Ravens make a loud statement,” Schefter said during ESPN’s NFL Draft coverage. “Teams rarely use picks on kickers without the intent of having those rookies come in and win those jobs. Once the Ravens take Tyler Loop from Arizona in the sixth round, that tells you that Justin Tucker’s future in Baltimore is very much up in the air.”
