NEW YORK — Tony Romo will not be in the broadcast booth on the final day of the NFL regular season Sunday after being sidelined by COVID-19 protocols, the network said.
CBS Sports posted the news with a short tweet on its CBS Sports PR Twitter feed Saturday afternoon. No other information was provided.
The network said Boomer Esiason, who normally is in CBS’ New York studio for “The NFL Today,” will team with Jim Nantz at SoFi Stadium calling the Arizona Cardinal-Los Angeles Rams game in Inglewood, Calif.
Romo joins NBC’s Al Michaels as a member of a network’s top announce crew to be sidelined this season because of COVID-19 protocols.
