Chad Johnson makes a play for Tony Romo’s CBS job

Following the departure of Tony Romo from the primary NFL broadcast team at CBS, former wide receiver Chad Johnson publicly expressed interest in taking over the vacant position on social media. Romo and the broadcasting network reached a financial agreement to part ways after the former quarterback was placed on indefinite leave following a summer arrest in Milwaukee.

Meanwhile, network executives confirmed that J.J. Watt will remain in the premier broadcast booth alongside Jim Nantz and Tracy Wolfson for the remainder of the season, meaning Johnson must wait at least until next year for any consideration.
