Chris Simms says CBS kept Phil Simms in dark on Tony Romo; What did Jim Nantz know?

CBS has said a bunch of nice things publicly about Phil Simms.

Privately, it's starting to sound like the network may have put the screws to the former Giants quarterback in order to install Tony Romo as its new lead NFL analyst - and Jim Nantz may have been in on the scheme.

Former Ramapo High star Chris Simms, Phil's son and a Bleacher Report NFL analyst, said on his 'Simms and Lefkoe' podcast that CBS did not give his father a heads-up that they were looking to replace him with the Cowboys quarterback.
