Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Terrell Owens tells the Dallas Morning News he’s apologizing for Wednesday’s comments that Jessica Simpson was a distraction for her star-quarterback boyfriend, Tony Romo, after the singer witnessed his worst performance of the season at Texas Stadium on Sunday in a 10-6 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. “I tried to get [Romo] to call her so I can explain to her that she doesn’t really know me and that I can be funny,” Owens explained. “And that everything I say, the media will take it and run with it. It’s not a big deal. I will try to rectify the situation between her and I.”
