The guaranteed money is $3 million more than what Joe Flacco recently received from the Baltimore Ravens.

This is the fourth contract Romo has signed with the Cowboys since joining the organization in 2003.

By inking a new deal with Romo now, the Cowboys will lower his salary-cap number and free up money to sign other players.
