In honor of Tony Romo’s career and commitment to Dallas and the Cowboys, the Mavericks, yes, the NBA team, have decided to invite the QB to suit up for their final home game of the season.
Not only will Romo participate in everything the Mavs do leading up to game time, he will awkwardly sit on the bench during the game in full uniform like some sort of Make-A-Wish tribute for a guy with an eye illness of mistaking cornerbacks for his receivers.
Before their game tonight against the Nuggets, we got our first look at Romo in a slightly different uniform that we’re used to seeing him in.
