Tony Romo officially announces he is joining CBS

Tony Romo

Tony Romo is, in fact, retiring from football to begin his career in broadcasting. We know this for certain now because it came straight from the man himself on Tuesday afternoon.

In his first post on Twitter since he thanked Dallas Cowboys fans for their support nearly a month ago, Romo shared a photo of himself rocking a CBS blazer.

There have been reports that Romo will be replacing Phil Simms to call games alongside Jim Nantz as part of CBS’s top duo. While the network says Simms’ future role is still being discussed, Romo essentially confirmed his own role in a statement:

Romo, an avid golfer, supposedly chose CBS because he could eventually have the opportunity to call some golf events in addition to NFL games. If he does replace Simms, it would seem less likely that speculation about him possibly returning to the playing field in the future will ever become a reality.
