The Baltimore Ravens have seen kicker Justin Tucker fall off considerably over the last year and a half. His 2023 season was filled with missed kicks from 50+ yards, while 2024 has been even more of a disaster for the future Hall-of-Fame kicker.
There are massive questions about what Baltimore should do with Tucker amidst his struggles, from bringing in competition to letting him ride it out. A legendary head coach, Bill Belichick, gave his opinion on the matter, saying that while Tucker still has the leg and talent, something is going on with him technique-wise, and he could be in his head.
“When I look at Justin Tucker I don’t see a lack of talent and he still has great height on the ball..
Clearly there’s some fundamental technique thing that he’s not doing consistently and that’s causing him to miss to the left and the right”

Belichick also mentions that he would stick it out with Justin Tucker rather than find another option without the leg or resumé that Tucker has. At this point in the season, the Ravens have limited options for fixing Tucker’s struggles. It will likely be up to Tucker himself to get himself right.
