Transitioning from the field to the booth is the most popular path in several athletes’ careers. After spending more than a decade with the Dallas Cowboys, Tony Romo set out to offer his views as an NFL analyst. The transition, from the looks of it, is not as easy as it seems.

After spending the majority of his life doing what he loved, it was difficult for him to leave the sporting world. When Romo was presented with one of the largest contracts in sportscasting history, the future looked promising. But recently, his seemingly upward trajectory took on a different path altogether.

Tony Romo is under the microscope

The initial luster around Tony Romo’s broadcasting career is slowly beginning to fade. Amidst the increasing scrutiny the former QB is under, the NFL world hasn’t made it easy for Romo to get back in his groove. Recently, reports alleging that the analyst was unprepared while calling certain games emerged. Here’s what the man in question had to say.

When he stepped into the broadcasting world, Romo became an instant hit. His foresight, alongside the pure passion he has for the game that seeps into his commentary, caught the fans’ attention. The NFL world welcomed the retired QB into the booth with open arms. But now, the analyst seems to have fallen into a slump.

The decline in rhythm and, at times, biased takes are beginning to garner criticism. Speaking to the New York Post, Romo said that as his career evolves, he’s inclined to lean on a process based on trial and error. Emphasizing on adaptability he added, “I just think it’s enjoyable to try and be the best you can be, and the only way to do that is sometimes to trial and error, and staying inside the umbrella of what you think that the viewer wants to help them enjoy the show.” As the off-season approaches, the analyst may have to head to the drawing board to figure out what went wrong.

Romo may not be the only superstar analyst

Setting aside Romo’s woes, the NFL world has something big to look forward to in the future. Seven-time Super Bowl champion Tom Brady’s recent retirement announcement has now opened the path to a potential second career in broadcasting. In the past, TB12 expressed interest in pursuing a future in the broadcasting world.

While it does seem like a good option, there may not be an immediate plan of action. Having Brady’s insights during the big games is something to look forward to. But before setting expectations, the NFL world will have to patiently wait as the newly retired QB settles in and hopefully offers confirmation.
