Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo has suffered multiple significant injuries in recent years, but the 36-year-old veteran is reportedly not considering retirement.

According to ESPN.com's Adam Schefter, the four-time Pro Bowler is "determined to play" in 2017 despite receiving interest from networks as a color analyst.

Romo attempted just four passes in 2016 after suffering a broken bone in his back during the preseason. He missed several weeks of action, and by the time he was healthy enough to dress, eventual Offensive Rookie of the Year Dak Prescott had already surpassed him on the depth chart.

The 2015 campaign didn't go much better for Romo, as he missed all but four games due to a pair of collarbone breaks.

There are major question marks surrounding Romo for any team that might consider trading for him during the offseason, but he isn't far removed from the best campaign of his career.

In 2014, Romo went 12-3 with 3,705 passing yards, 34 touchdowns and nine interceptions, which put him in the MVP conversation.

Per Jason La Canfora of CBSSports.com, Romo reportedly has interest in joining the Houston Texans, Arizona Cardinals, Denver Broncos and Kansas City Chiefs, all of which could benefit from an upgrade at quarterback.

Romo has a lot to prove with regard to whether he can hold up over the course of an entire season, but acquiring him could be a franchise-changing move if he manages to return to his 2014 form.
