The situation around the Dallas Cowboys and Tony Romo has been constantly changing throughout the offseason. Reportedly, it’s taken a big toll on Romo.
Tony Romo has taken situation very personally in Dallas and has distanced himself from teammates and coach who were "Team Dak" per source.

Normally, it would be hard to justify Romo taking this too personally. But from a human perspective, it’s hard to criticize him. He obviously wants to play football and it’s not going to happen in Dallas. Yet, weeks into free agency and nearly two months after the Super Bowl, he remains a Cowboy.
Unfortunately for Romo, the drama is not likely to end any time soon, which can be read about here.
One of the most sensible destinations would be the Denver Broncos, but John Elway has made it clear that his team isn’t interested. Previously, the Houston Texans emerged as not only the best fit, but possibly the only one. While that makes all kinds of sense, Romo can’t like the fact that it hasn’t happened.
The good news for Romo is that he has options in football outside of playing, such as television.
But for right now, it’s just a lot of limbo. It’s hard to imagine him being anything but frustrated with those closest to the situation. Though, it would be an awful shame if his tenure in Dallas ended on such a sour note.
