(CNN) — New England Patriots wide receiver Antonio Brown no longer has an endorsement deal with Nike, the company said Thursday, more than a week after the NFL player was accused of rape.
“Antonio Brown is not a Nike athlete,” a Nike spokesperson said, declining to comment on specifics.
Brown took the field Sunday in his first game as a New England Patriot, five days after he was sued on allegations of rape and sexual assault. Brown denies the allegations.
