Tony Romo, star quarterback for the Dallas Cowboys, has had a relatively long (6 years) but controversial career. Despite a label saying that he can’t win the big games, this high profile player has nevertheless become a very recognizable NFL player. As an undrafted player out of Eastern Illinois in 2003, Romo has an exceptionally large number of trading cards devoted to him. The Tony Romo rookie card has eighteen different varieties which is an amazing feat for a player that was not drafted and was on the verge of being released.
Out of all the different types of cards, the Tony Romo card that is the most valuable is either the Playoff Contender #156 or the SP Authentic #217. The Playoff Contender has cards numbered to 999 and the SP Authentic numbers 1200 but the main reason that these cards are so valuable is because they are autographed editions.
