nflProcter & Gamble has pulled its league-wide Breast Cancer Awareness Month initiative with the National Football League due to its domestic abuse crisis.

CBS Sports reports the campaign with the 32 teams was supposed to feature a player from each to be "ambassadors" for breast cancer awareness in a sponsorship with Crest toothpaste.

The players were to wear pink mouthguards and actively promote on social media the importance of screening and other breast health measures.

CBS reports the P&G has notified the players about its withdrawing from the effort and reassured them that planned charitable donations to breast cancer groups will still be made.

Taylor has worked with P&G on the PR front of its NFL sponsorship.
