CBS football analyst and former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo was arrested Thursday night in Milwaukee on suspicion of intoxicated driving, officials said.
Romo, 46, was pulled over on southbound Interstate 43 at about 6:18 p.m. CDT after he “performed poorly” on standardized field sobriety tests, according to Milwaukee County Sheriff’s records.
The stop came just hours after Romo wrapped an interview with NBC affiliate WTMJ, the Milwaukee TV station reported.
Romo played in parts of 13 seasons in the NFL, all for the Dallas Cowboys, before seamlessly transitioning to the booth with CBS.
He’s one-third of the network’s top NFL broadcast team, alongside play-by-play announcer Jim Nantz and sideline reporter Tracy Wolfson. Romo called his third Super Bowl in 2024.
It wasn’t immediately clear on Friday if Romo had hired a defense attorney to speak on his behalf.
