Nike said Wednesday that it had suspended its endorsement contract with Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson amid allegations of sexual assault and  misconduct brought against him in lawsuits by 22 women.

Beats by Dre also is reportedly dropping Watson, and Reliant Energy is removing him as a brand ambassador.

The women making the accusations are massage therapists and others who said the alleged actions happened while they were giving Watson a massage.
