The story, of course, spread like wildfire, and has since been reported in many places, including the Chicago Sun-Times, the New York Daily News, NBC5 and Sports Illustrated.
America's cutest couple were in sleepy, enchanting Geneva, IL, over the summer. Most recently, their vehicles were spotted parked on River Lane near .
Urlacher, of course, didn't show up to training camp, citing "personal reasons," but he is vowing today that that he'll be ready to play by Sept. 9, after orthoscopic knee surgery.
"That's all I care about," he told the Daily Herald's Bob Legere and others. "Sept. 9 is all I care about."
Jenny has been staying in Geneva this summer, and we hope she decides to settle here permanently. No news yet as to whether the romance was the sole reason for her return to her roots in the Chicago area, or whether the breakup will signal a move back to LA.
