Craig Carton rips Chiefs’ ‘win at all costs’ approach after controversial Justin Tucker signing

The Kansas City Chiefs have signed kicker Justin Tucker to their practice squad, prompting sports commentator Craig Carton to criticise what he sees as the team’s “win at all costs” approach. Carton argued that the move raises questions about the standards the club and its owners, the Hunt family, want to represent.

Tucker was suspended for 10 games under the NFL’s personal conduct policy after 24 women accused him of sexual misconduct or inappropriate behaviour during massage sessions; he has denied the allegations. Reports in 2025 described accusations from 16 massage therapists, followed by seven more, concerning sessions between 2012 and 2016 at spas in Baltimore. The Chiefs signed him amid kicking problems involving Harrison Butker.
