Is Jessica Simpson Dating Dallas Cowboy Quarterback Tony Romo?

Quarterback Tony Romo, who said his ex-girlfriend broke up with him just hours before he took over the reins of America's Team, recently revealed having a crush on actress and singer Jessica Simpson, according to the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. Media outlets are reporting that Simpson's representatives heard the rumor and got in touch with Romo's people and set up a date. The couple are now rumored to be an item.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Terrell Owens was asked about the couple on his radio show and Owens joked that maybe he and Romo can double-date with Jessica and Ashlee. And ask Cowboys players to describe Romo and one word keeps emerging: cool. It makes sense considering how he’s handled the last month.

Undrafted out of college and unused his first 3½ NFL seasons, all Romo has done since taking over the high-profile job of Cowboys quarterback is win three of four starts, earn NFC offensive player of the week honors one Sunday and then outduel Peyton Manning the next.

“Romo is having one of those Cinderella seasons,” linebacker Kevin Burnett said Monday. “He’s the type of quarterback who is cool. He extends the play, he gets himself out of bad situations. If we go to the Super Bowl, he’s going to be the guy who takes us there.” Whoa, hang on there. While Romo’s rapid emergence has salvaged this season and set up the Cowboys (6-4) for an interesting finish, he’s bound to start running into some obstacles — right? Perhaps. But so far Romo has shown the poise of someone who has been playing for years, not watching.
