Tony Romo became the highest-paid sports analyst in history earlier this offseason, but he isn't interested in speaking about the aspects of the deal. Even though it's a historic achievement, Romo won't reveal the details about his contract with CBS.
“I’m not going to go into detail with the contract stuff,” Romo told Graham Bensinger. “I just don’t like talking about contract stuff.”
Romo, a former NFL quarterback with the Dallas Cowboys, remarkably played 14 seasons in the NFL. Despite being undrafted, Romo is one of the best quarterbacks to play under center for the Cowboys.
However, after he called it quits after the 2016 season, Romo chose to join the booth on CBS with Jim Nantz. Once Romo began calling games, it was apparent that he was a natural in the booth.
Over the past few years, Romo draws rave reviews due to his uncanny ability to predict plays before they happen. Also, his knowledge of the game is helpful for fans that are interested in learning about the specifics of football.
Following the 2019 season, Romo was set to become a free agent as a commentator. But before he could speak to other networks, the former quarterback agreed to an astounding contract with CBS.
To be exact, Romo received a 10-year, $180 million contract to remain with the network he joined in 2016. As an illustration, Romo made a grand total of $127.4 million over his playing career with the Cowboys. While he won't speak about the details of the deal, it's safe to say he's content with his new contract.
