CBS and Tony Romo are set to part ways, with the change taking effect around Oct. 2, according to reporting across outlets. One source says CBS and Romo agree on the terms of their separation, including that Romo is expected to receive “a good portion” of the roughly $72 million he had remaining on the final four years of his contract.

In separate comments about the broadcaster’s future, longtime CBS lead announcer Jim Nantz addresses Romo’s departure and expresses confidence that Romo will return to television work. One outlet reports Nantz is candid about what comes next, while another highlights his view that Romo’s next opportunity is strongly likely. The coverage focuses on media industry expectations rather than any specific replacement at CBS, reflecting differing angles: contract details on one hand, and predictions about Romo’s career trajectory on the other.
