Key Points:
- Former Cowboys quarterback and CBS broadcaster Tony Romo announced a no-contest plea to OWI charges and expressed his intention to return to CBS.
- CBS has not commented on Romo's statement, referring only to a previous release placing him on leave "until further notice."
- The lack of coordination between Romo and CBS suggests a rift and potential legal disputes over the remaining four years and $72 million on his contract.
- Industry observers, including John Ourand, believe it is highly unlikely that Romo will return to CBS.
- CBS appears to be moving forward without Romo, promoting J.J. Watt to the top broadcast team slot with a long-term opportunity.
