It’s safe to say Chad Johnson has endured a self-inflicted week from hell. Due to a recent episode of domestic violence, he’s lost … well, everything — his job, TV show, and, marriage all suddenly went up in smoke.
And it’s only getting worse for the mercurial receiver (and his wallet).
In a statement released to ESPN, coconut water brand Zico confirmed it has ended its endorsement deal with Johnson, less than a month after it was announced.
“The Zico brand is about supporting naturally powered athletes,” the company said in a statement. “We partnered with Chad Johnson because of our great respect for what he has achieved on the playing field.
“However, in light of recent events involving Mr. Johnson, we have decided to terminate our relationship. The values we espouse, through our employees, our customers and our brand, are central to our mission. We have taken this proactive step to demonstrate just how important those values are.”

He can change his name to Ochocinco, back to Johnson, and to anything that gets him attention, but Chad Johnson doesn't deserve another shot in the NFL. His domestic violence arrest is despicable and he should face the consequences, but my reasoning has nothing to do with his alleged crime. Johnson hasn't been a viable...
