Us Weekly is reporting that creepy daddy Joe Simpson has given a jaw-dropping offer to daughter Jessica's beau Tony Romo: A source tells Us Joe asked Romo, 28, to drop his agent so he could take over his NFL career and the quarterback's mammoth $67.5 million contract with the Dallas Cowboys.
Joe even offered to broker a deal to sell his engagement and wedding to a magazine should Romo and Jessica, 27, get engaged. "'If you guys have a marriage, I can do the same [sell it] that I did with Ashlee [and Pete Wentz],'" a source quotes him as saying.
When asked for comment by Us, Joe defended himself, telling Us, “It’s unfair to criticize me for what every manager does for his or her clients. And in this business, where people can quickly turn on you, who better than a parent to be working for his children?"
Romo was also turned off by Jessica's partying, another source adds. "Tony goes out and he will drink socially, but he said Jess takes it to an extreme," the pal tells Us.
For now, a source says Romo and Simpson are back on, in "a talking stage. It's in a middle-of-the-road state."
