Tony Romo is in serious trouble off the field. The CBS analyst and former Cowboys quarterback was arrested last week on suspicion of driving under the influence, and now police confirm there was an open bottle of alcohol in his vehicle at the time. This is a significant story for both the man and the network heading into the season.
Shifting to European football, and this is a massive development — UEFA's fifty-five member associations are backing a full boycott of FIFA competitions, including the World Cup, after rejecting Gianni Infantino's investment plan.

That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
