And as we reported earlier, Romo’s facing 3 new citations in the case — first-offense operating while intoxicated, unsafe passing on the right side, and possessing open intoxicants in his vehicle.
He failed a field sobriety test when he was pulled over in July and was placed under arrest. CBS Sports put him on indefinite leave after the incident.
