NEW YORK CITY — Tony Romo sits a table inside of CBS’ Studio 19 in midtown Manhattan, surrounded by a scrum of reporters. This is broadcaster Romo, clad in a gray houndstooth jacket with his hair neatly gelled. With him in the middle of the huddle is Jim Nantz, CBS’s lead play-by-play analyst and Romo’s new teammate in the booth. Nantz listens and nods along like a proud father as his mentee fields questions about his new career, chiming in a few times to comment on Romo’s progress as an NFL analyst.
The former Cowboys quarterback has called eight practice games this summer (five in studio, three live) and will make his broadcasting debut in CBS’s broadcast of Raiders-Titans. I spoke to Romo via phone in July for a larger piece in the Sports Illustrated Dallas Cowboys Quarterbacks special issue, and this is that full interview, combined with some questions from Wedneday’s the NFL on CBS media day. Romo took a break from his broadcast prep to talk about his advice for Dak Prescott, his undrafted work ethic, and what he learned from Roger Staubach and Troy Aikman.
