Justin Tucker is Instagram Live gold, trolls Saints on flight home
By Rylie Smith
Baltimore Ravens placekicker Justin Tucker completely trolled the New Orleans Saints in the funniest way on his flight home.
Baltimore Ravens veteran Justin Tucker proved once again to be more than just a talented NFL player. He had the most hilarious comment about the New Orleans Saints on an Instagram Live video from Marlon Humphrey. Tucker told Humphrey, “You’re going to have me saying something silly like, ‘Racks on racks, smoking on that Saints pack.'”

Tucker is a complete jokester with the team, and he’s only getting funnier. In an earlier Instagram Live by Humphrey after a recent defeat of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Tucker took a jab at Russell Wilson for doing high knees down the aisle of a flight to London. Tucker stated, “I heard Lamar [Jackson’s] leading us in high knees, Ravens flock, let’s fly!”
All in good fun, the kicker is clearly doing a great job of balancing his NFL career and his self-acclaimed comedic practices. The Ravens lead the AFC North with a 6-3 record, and Tucker has gone 18-20 in field goals this season.
He’s both an entertainer and a fighter, and the Ravens should certainly hold onto him.
Justin Tucker offers talent alongside his comedy
Tucker is one of the best kickers in the NFL. He ranks third for field goals made and has the best rating among all kickers. This is his 11th season with Baltimore, the only team he’s ever played for in the NFL, and he’s maintained a field goal percentage of 91 with 344-378 field goals made.
He helped bring Baltimore to a Super Bowl victory in 2013, and he’s a five-time first-team All-Pro, two-time second-team All-Pro, five-time Pro Bowl player and a 2010s NFL All-Decade player. He’s showing no signs of slowing down, and he’s undoubtedly a source of reliable talent and team entertainment all in one.
