Let's connect some dots here. CBS just let Tony Romo go. While JJ Watt has done a good job as his replacement, perhaps the network wants a stable partner for Jim Nantz as the top duo in the booth. Plus, let's not forget that the Super Bowl in 2028 will be broadcast by... CBS. So getting a name like Aikman to pair with Nantz would make a ton of sense.
