The complications for NFL legend and former "Dancing with the Stars" contestant Lawrence Taylor are far from over -- as a matter of fact, you could proclaim that they are only beginning.
The first part of the fallout from Thursday's allegations of rape at a New York hotel are coming from weight-loss product Nutrisystem, who TMZ is reporting has dropped him from all advertisements.
A spokesperson for the company had this to say about the decision:
"Based on the severity of these allegations, Nutrisystem has made the decision to sever our relationship with Mr. Taylor effective immediately."
The company has moved fast, as they have already replaced Taylor in their online advertisements with MLB star Matt Stairs.

In other news, there are reports coming in that Taylor's accuser told the NFL star she was 19 prior to their alleged encounter -- in actuality, the woman is really only 16.
There is still a great deal more to sort through in this case, so stay tuned and feel free to share your thoughts with a comment below.
