After finding a great home in the broadcasting booth, Tony Romo says that he has no plans to move back to the football field, be it as a coach or player.
Drawing massive praise thanks to his expert calling of players, especially his seemingly constantly accurate calls during the end of the AFC Championship Game, Romo won’t be making the leap back into the NFL world.
According to the man himself during a media conference call for Super Bowl LIII, Romo – who will be the color analyst for the game – says that he likes where his career is taking him and hasn’t really thought about coming back.
“I never say never to anything. I’ve said this many times, I’m really happy where I’m at. I love where my life is,” Romo said. “I’m sure, at some point, 25 years from now, you’ll want to something competitive in that regard. But I like where I’m at. I don’t think about that right now at all.”
After being asked if he had received any actual coaching offers after the game, Romo joked that the only thing he’d be asked about is working the Super Bowl. He also spoke about his ability to seemingly predict play calls during the games, attributing it all to luck.
“The game is the story, and you’re just going to call it,” Romo said. “I’m really talking out loud. There’s no real big planned thing. There’s no plan of doing it. Once in a blue moon, you get lucky.”
Alongside Jim Nantz and in conjunction with Tracy Wolfson and Evan Washburn, Romo will be in the booth during Super Bowl LIII, likely wowing fans once again with his ability to correctly predict plays.
The game begins at 5:30 p.m. EST, so make sure to tune in and see how many he gets right.
