CBS Sports President: ‘No Timetable’ for Romo’s Return
Romo was placed on indefinite leave on July 31.
CBS Sports president David Berson confirmed at the network's annual talent press conference that there is currently no timetable for Tony Romo's return. Romo, who is entering his 10th season as CBS's No. 1 game analyst, was placed on indefinite leave following an OWI arrest in Wisconsin in July. Romo is set to appear in court on September 21.
The network has announced that J.J. Watt will take over as the new No. 1 game analyst alongside Jim Nantz and Tracy Wolfson, while Ross Tucker will replace Romo as the No. 2 game analyst. During the press conference, Berson emphasized that the situation is a personal and legal matter for Romo, and that they are still assessing the evolution of the case.
He expressed confidence in the team's ability to maintain focus on their presentation and the quality of the product, given their deep bench of talent.
