Tony Romo and CBS mutually agree to part ways

CBS and Tony Romo have mutually agreed to part ways, with reports suggesting the network paid a significant portion of his remaining contract to avoid litigation.

Romo was owed $72 million over four years, and CBS reportedly preferred to absorb a good portion of that cost rather than fight over the terms.

With the exact figure undisclosed, estimates place the buyout between $36 million and $48 million, allowing the separation to be resolved without arbitration. afnews.co.za
