Tony Romo to Be 'Maverick for a Day,' Will Dress for Team's Final Game

Published by Bleacher Report on Sat, 08 Apr 2017


The Dallas Mavericks will honor former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo during their final home game Tuesday night against the Denver Nuggets, ESPN.com's Marc Stein reported Saturday. According to Stein, Romo will be a "Maverick for a day" and sit on the bench in the team's uniform.While Romo's position on the Mavs will be ceremonial, Dallas will reportedly "treat him like an actual player on the roster."In addition to playing quarterback for Burlington High School in Wisconsin, Romo starred on the basketball team."He was really, really good, but he'd already committed to [Eastern Illinois] for football," his high school coach, Steve Berezowitz, said in September 2015, perUSA Today'sJason Jordan. "I think everyone thought he was a better basketball player at the time. I think he knew that his ceiling was higher in football though."The four-time Pro Bowler retired after playing 13 seasons in the NFL (he didn't see the field in 2003 after signing with the Cowboys as an undrafted free agent). CBS SportsannouncedTuesday he will join the network as its lead football analyst, replacing Phil Simms.Romo leaves the franchise as its all-time leader inpassing yards(34,183) andpassing touchdowns(248).
