No substantive talks yet between Tony Romo, CBS

SmashMouth · 08-15-2019, 09:29 AM

Like current Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott, former Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo is entering a contract year. Unlike Prescott, Romo can’t be restricted by the franchise tag.

Andrew Marchand of the New York Post reports that Romo and his current employer, CBS, have had “no substantive talks” on a new contract. Romo is signed through the 2019 season.

Romo wouldn’t talk about the situation; “I Bill Belichick contract talk,” Romo told Marchand.

CBS Sports Chairman Sean McManus told Marchand that McManus expected Romo to remain at CBS “for a long time.” Absent a new contract in the next five months, however, Romo will become a broadcasting free agent.

Per Marchand, Romo currently earns in the “low-$3-million range.” Romo is believed to be looking for more than $8 million per year.

CBS needs to pay the man. He is the best colour guy on TV.

I agree with you 100%. Very funny and knows what he's talking about and is very fair unlike dry ass cris collinsworth.

He deserves to get paid. Brings a more technical aspect to it which nobody does. I like Bobby Hebert but he is really awful at it. Not even close to Romo.
