NEW YORK (CBS) Jessica Simpson once again finds herself dating a football player.
The singer, who was romantically linked to Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo for two years, is rejoining the NFL dating pool, this time with former San Francisco 49ers tight end Eric Johnson, according to published reports.
