Former NFL star Drew Bledsoe took a shot at his Dallas Cowboys successor Tony Romo on Sunday during a segment on ESPN before games across the league kicked off.

Bledsoe appeared on "Sunday NFL Countdown" to talk about being the veteran presence in the quarterback room. He was with the New England Patriots when he was eventually replaced by Tom Brady, and with the Cowboys when Romo eventually replaced him.

Bledsoe recalled he didn’t agree with then-head coach Bill Parcells’ decision to replace him with Romo.

"If you’re watching this Romo, you know this is true. The minute he became the starter, he became pretty big in his own mind," Bledsoe said during the segment. "He was no longer the curious and inquisitive guy. That was the difference between him and (Tom Brady). Tommy became the starter, he still was asking all the questions, where all of a sudden Romo was the guy that had all the answers."
