Former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo released a statement on Friday following the announcement he mutually parted ways with CBS Sports.

The network’s former lead NFL analyst said he was “proud of what I accomplished” over the course of nine seasons alongside Jim Nantz as CBS Sports’ top broadcast team.

“I approached my role as a game analyst the way I’ve approached everything in my life – with a desire to win and be the best that I can be,” Romo said.

“I’m going to use this time to take a break, something I’ve never done before, and focus on my health and my family before moving on to my next opportunity. I am grateful for my time with CBS Sports and for the continued support of my family and friends, as well as the NFL community and fans.”

Romo, who worked for CBS Sports since 2017, had been off the airwaves since his July arrest following a traffic stop in Wisconsin that led to a charge of operating while intoxicated.

On July 31, CBS Sports placed Romo on leave “until further notice” and moved J.J. Watt into the lead analyst role on the network’s top broadcast team alongside Jim Nantz, which most recently called the Cowboys’ game in Brazil against the Baltimore Ravens.

CBS Sports also announced Friday that Watt will continue in that role.

“We thank Tony for his contributions over the past nine years and wish him the best moving forward,” a statement from CBS Sports read.

Romo was arrested July 23 in Wisconsin on suspicion of operating while intoxicated, according to the Milwaukee County Sheriff’s Office.

After the arrest, Romo faced three citations for operating under the influence, unsafe passing on the right, and allegedly possessing an open bottle of an alcoholic beverage in his car, according to documents from the Wisconsin Department of Transportation. He was later issued a fourth citation for refusing to take a test for intoxication.

Romo pleaded no contest to the OWI charge and released a statement on Sept. 1 apologizing for the incident and calling it a “personal failure.”

Romo spent his entire 13-year NFL career with the Cowboys. He went from an undrafted free agent out of Eastern Illinois to becoming the all-time passing leader in Cowboys’ history. Dak Prescott, his heir apparent, passed that record this past season.
