The retired soccer star told NBC News she's ending 'any involvement” with Prevacus and Odyssey Health Inc., firms jointly touting a nasal spray to treat concussions.

Wambach told NBC News via text, "This morning, I was dismayed to learn disturbing information about a company I had backed as part of my deeply personal effort to lessen the impact of concussion-related injuries."Wambach did not elaborate on what new information she learned.

Prevacus and VanLandingham were sued by the state of Mississippi in May 2022 in an effort to recoup $2.1 million in federal welfare funds the company received — money that was supposed to be used to help low-income children and families in the nation's poorest state. "Don't know if legal or not but we need cut him in," Favre texted a company official, referring to Bryant, adding three days later: "Also if legal I'll give some of my shares to the Governor."
