CBS announces its next two weeks of NFL broadcast teams, but Tony Romo is not included. A CBS press release provides limited information, offering no new details beyond what has already been said about Romo’s status after the network placed him on leave.
Romo’s absence comes in the context of CBS reviewing his situation following his July arrest in Milwaukee on suspicion of operating while intoxicated (OWI). Different outlets focus on the lack of clarity about when, or whether, he will return to his analyst role. One report highlights that CBS has not provided any further update since placing him on leave, while another emphasizes that his current return remains in question as scheduled broadcasts proceed without him.
As CBS moves forward with announcer assignments for the upcoming games, both sources agree the immediate effect is that Romo is not part of the announced teams for that period, and that CBS has communicated little additional information publicly.
