Romo Pleads No Contest to Wisconsin OWI, Cites Pain Medication Withdrawal as Cause

As part of the plea, his driving privileges are revoked for six months, and he must pay a fine and complete an alcohol assessment program. CBS Sports suspended Romo following his July arrest, replacing him with former NFL defender J.J. Watt.
