Antonio Ramiro “Tony” Romo (born April 21, 1980) is a professional American football quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys of the NFL. Romo went undrafted in 2003 after playing college football at Eastern Illinois and signed as a free agent with the Dallas Cowboys. Romo replaced the Cowboys’ previous starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe during a game against the New York Giants in the 2006 season. Romo was a Pro Bowl selection for the 2006, 2007, and 2009 seasons. Additionally, Romo has broken Dallas Cowboys team records including most games with at least 300 passing yards and games with three or more touchdown passes. However, Romo has been criticized for underachieving during crucial game situations and losing close games with turnovers.
