Episode Details

J.J. Watt is making his big leap into the broadcast booth, stepping in for Tony Romo at CBS Sports after Romo’s DUI arrest — and it’s already sparking major buzz. Watt, who retired from the NFL in 2022, will call games alongside Jim Nantz starting with the Vikings vs. Packers on Sept. 13. Romo, pulled over July 23rd and cited for refusing sobriety tests, faces court on Sept. 21. CBS says they’re evaluating everything — including Romo’s future — while praising their depth and readiness. With Ross Tucker now filling Romo’s old spot on the second crew, this shake-up proves how fast sports media can pivot — and how electrifying Watt’s new role might be.
