Romo pleaded no contest to an OWI charge after a traffic stop in July. CBS placed him on leave before the official announcement. Jim Nantz and Tracy Wolfson will continue as the lead NFL announce team for the rest of the season, with JJ Watt and the other analysts remaining unchanged. Romo signed a $180 million, 10-year contract with CBS in 2020. In his statement, Romo expressed pride in his accomplishments at CBS Sports and plans to take a break to focus on his health and family.",
