Scoring Zone's Take

This one's purely a media-world story, not a football-performance story. Tony Romo is on leave from CBS after an arrest, and J.J. Watt will be stepping in as his replacement in the broadcast booth during that period. That's the entirety of what's being reported here.

For fantasy purposes, this has zero bearing on J.J. Watt's playing value — he's already retired from the NFL, so there's no roster, waiver, or draft-prep angle to act on here. There's nothing to start, sit, add, drop, or trade for based on this news, since it doesn't touch any active player's usage, health, or role on a football field.

Confidence is high (100%) that the reporting itself is accurate per both sources, but the impact score of 0.0 reflects exactly what it should: this is a non-event for your fantasy roster. File it away as an interesting offseason media note, not something that should influence your draft board or watch list this summer.

With CBS placing No. 1 NFL analyst Tony Romo on leave following a recent arrest for suspicion of operating while intoxicated, his spot needs to be filled.
