Will Tony Romo Be Back Sooner Rather Than Later? | TMZ Sports

All right. Moving on to Tony Romo. Of course, Tony Romo is out, no longer in that CBS booth alongside his partner, Jim Nance. But will he be back? That is the question that Jimmy Traynor, a media reporter, posed on his Train of Thoughts podcast to none other than Jim Nance. Did you get any say in CBS's decision to part ways with Tony? Did they come to you? Did they seek your advice how did that at the end how did the end play out i had no role in this i think you know that and um i think that's the way that it had to be it was going to be cbs sports decision you think he'll work again calling games i think unquestionably he will work again i don't know if it's calling games or being in the studio he's he's got he's got a lot of talent he's got a lot of people who like him and he is a star yeah and he's got a personality that is you know it's it's um it's it's just it's different that's that's a good thing it's uh he's a bigger than life personality i think there'll be plenty of opportunity for that all right so there it is he thinks that jim thinks that tony will be back he's obviously he's a great football guy he didn't say and i thought that was interesting he didn't say that it would be in the booth though as you heard right it could be as a studio analyst oh i mean i can totally see that happening i mean like i think i've been pretty vocal about the fact that i think tony romo is a very excellent announcer i mean i think right now it kind of seems like a lot of the jobs are kind of taken you know netflix kind of has their guys amazon has their guys those are kind of the only two other studios that i could kind of see maybe taking um a talent like romo just because everyone else has their you know they're pretty established with pretty established players yeah you know all these guys i think are pretty established right right with their eyes so i think we're kind of settled down there yeah i don't know like what the media free agency is like with that but maybe at some point he can find his way back into that uh that booth but i think an in-studio analyst would be a great gig i mean you know seeing him at halftime breaking down a game i think that's just as respectable as being there in the booth obviously he's a very talented play by play caller but maybe people might find him you know less annoying or less predictable or whatever during a halftime or something yeah no i mean this whole interview is like really great jim nance was talking about going to like tony romo's wedding back in the day just how close they are And that they worked together for nine years and three Super Bowls. And they've been through so much. And, like, Jim was clearly, like, hurt a little bit, you know, that he's not with this guy. But, yeah, I just feel like, you know, we've got to let some time pass, let people forget a little bit. That's, like, how I feel like all this works. And Tony will be back. Well, Jim, I hate to tell you, but let me tell you this old school phrase. You play stupid games, you win stupid prizes. My boy Tony decided to go and get lit. Like a little drunky. Like he was blitzed out of his mind. And when we got that blood alcohol level report back after Mr. I didn't drink at all. Liar. You drank a lot. And you didn't go about it in the correct manner. That will never. Oh, yeah. That will never. And I'm not laughing at driving drunk. It's horrible. Oh, no, you're not. No, just the stretching part. No, he went above and beyond to make it seem like he was so sober. You didn't play your cards right. You should take an accountability. And, again, you play stupid games. You win stupid prizes. You decide to drive drunk. Now you don't have a job and like Luca said there's no there is no spots. There's no free agency. There is no free agency There's nowhere for you to go We love our commentators that we hear week after week after week you Luca you said like Tony is a great commentator That's back. Yeah, but so are the other commentators that we already have and that we've grown to love over every Sunday every Monday Every Thursday night. So at the end of the day, I'm sorry. No, I'm not sorry Tony jokes on you
