Lindsay Lohan is dating former football player Matt Nordgen, Us Weekly reported Tuesday.

The 30-year-old hunk was a quarterback for the University of Texas. In 2006, he played for one season for the Philadelphia Eagles. In 2011, he starred in the reality series Most Eligible Dallas

Sources said that the Texan is a good influence to Lohan.

"He's a great influence on her, and her friends and family love him," a source said. "He's older, a successful businessman, and he has been a great friend to her. He's also a Christian and won't drink around her. He's trying to keep her sober and on the straight and narrow. He's really good for her." 

Page Six reported that the two met seven years ago in Los Angeles. They had mutual friends. However, at that time, they only had a platonic relationship.

"We've hung out," Nordgren told the New York Post's Page Six of Lohan. "But I have been a friend trying to support her for many years now."

"She's completely sober for months now," he added. "She's in a great place, she's thinking clear and working hard and meeting with all the right people."
