Jerry Jones expressed strong support for Tony Romo despite his recent drunk driving arrest and departure from CBS. On a radio show, Jones praised Romo’s talents and personal qualities, stating that no one has “a better future” than him. Romo was placed on indefinite leave after the OWI incident in July and officially left CBS last week when J.J. Watt replaced him as lead analyst. Romo still retains much of his remaining $72 million from a 10-year contract worth $180 million with CBS, though he plans to take some time off before pursuing new opportunities.
