The former Minnesota Viking was sentenced yesterday to probation in his child abuse case and today Nike officially severed their ties. Hit the jump for details.
Via Pro Football Talk:
Whatever happens between Vikings running back Adrian Peterson and his primary employer, Peterson now has one less entity giving him money.
According to Darren Rovell of ESPN, Nike has terminated its contract with Peterson.
Previously, Nike suspended the arrangement on September 17. He rejoined Nike in 2013 after going without a shoe sponsor in 2012.
Peterson pleaded no contest on Tuesday to misdemeanor assault charges in Texas. The agreement resolved felony child abuse charges and avoided a December 1 trial.
