I thought for sure that Romo stated he would look into coaching after he retired. Maybe I'm remembering wrong, but I'm pretty sure he did.
I remember hearing that, too.
Here's what I found.
The article is from July, 2013.

Does
Tony Romo have designs on a future career in coaching?
We've never heard the
Dallas Cowboys quarterback publicly express a desire to remain on the sidelines after his playing days end, but that passion exists, according to an interesting tidbit passed along by Peter King.
"Most players don't like the obsessive grind of coaching, but I hear Dallas QB
Tony Romo's different,"
King wrote on TheMMQB.com.
"He'd like to be a coordinator one day," said a person close to Romo.
Things may have changed by now, Tony Romo may not wish to spend long hours at the Star in the future as an assistant coach instead of at home with his family.
But maybe not.
Romo is a competitor and the idea of becoming a coach appeals to him.
It wouldn't be about the money.
Manning on TV? Only on a show for insomniacs. Comes across as the most boring person on earth every time he's interviewed. Zero personality.
Multiple NFL teams are waiting for Peyton Manning to officially retire and ask him to join their front office.
Manning may want to continue playing, a TV deal is also a possibility, but transitioning to a front office role may have the most appeal.

With the
Browns and
Titans already preparing for major changes this offseason, both organizations have strong interest in adding
Peyton Manning to the fold should he opt to retire this offseason, sources said.
Manning has a strong relationship with Browns owner Jimmy Haslam from their ties to the state of Tennessee, and Haslam's interest in having Manning in a management/ownership role are long known (dating back several years to his interest in the Titans at the time).
The Titans have already essentially wiped their entire organizational slate clean for 2016 from team president on down in what's likely a precursor to a pursuit of Manning, who has told friends for years how much he might enjoy living in Tennessee after his playing days are over.
