CytoSport Ends Endorsement Deal With Patriots TE Aaron Hernandez

The company that makes Muscle Milk is ending its endorsement deal with Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez.

Police have searched in and around Hernandez's home in North Attleborough, Mbutt., after a 27-year-old semi-pro football player from Boston was found dead a mile away. The district attorney's office has not said whether Hernandez will face any charges.

Benicia, Calif.-based CytoSport says in a one-sentence statement that in light of the investigation involving Hernandez, it was terminating its endorsement contract with him effective immediately.

The company, which makes Muscle Milk and other nutritional supplements for athletes, did not say how much that contract was worth or what it called for Hernandez to do.

If no official arrest has been made and Hernandez isn't in trouble yet, it's rather bull crap, IMO, that these sponsors dump a guy like that...

 

Way too much negativity is coming out to keep him.

 

I woulda dumped his butt yesterday.

 

True. I should have said based on the one story. But I would agree with the multiple stories and now the Wes Welker thing...there is a crap ton is negativity that is snow balling pretty huge...
