The Dallas Mavericks are planning a tribute and “very special sports experience” for the retiring Cowboys quarterback before their final home game.
A frequent front-row fan with a seat next to the Mavericks bench during his 10 years as the Cowboys starter, Romo lost his job to rookie Dak Prescott while recovering from a back injury last season.
Prescott had already shown promise when Romo broke a bone in his back in a preseason game at Seattle last year.
The Cowboys had a franchise-record 11-game winning streak on their way to the NFC East title without Romo, who conceded the job to Prescott when he was healthy and was the backup for the last seven games of the regular season and a divisional playoff loss to Green Bay.
