Dallas Cowboys Quarterback Tony Romo Breaks Left Clavicle, Expected to Miss 8

They will navigate the next two months with backup Brandon Weeden at quarterback.

Losing Romo for any stretch of time is tough and couple that with Bryant and that leaves the Cowboys without two of their biggest stars. After the Cowboys coughed up the ball and the Eagles were only down 10, Kelce hiked the ball before Bradford was ready and possession went back to Dallas.

“So I am not going to put any added pressure on myself”. I know what is at stake.

Coach Jason Garrett said Monday tests revealed no ligament damage for Romo after the second broken collarbone of his career. He missed 10 games in 2010 with a similar injury. “We decided against it because we weren’t in playoff contention”.

Donald Trump, a front-runner in the Republican presidential primary, said in a Twitter Q&A Monday afternoon that Tony Romo’s injury is “a awful thing for the Dallas Cowboys“.

Adrian Peterson also got churning again, rushing for 134 yards in Week 2 after going for only 31 in Week 1. That would be quite an accomplishment without three of the best players the team had during the 2015 season. “We like the options we have right now”. Either way, it’s likely the NFC East is closely fought this season, and a return of Romo and Bryant late in the season could make a huge difference. He returned with his left arm in a sling. Kelly said he doesn’t know whether Alonso hurt his knee after making a tackle on a third-down play midway through the quarter, or on the punt on the next play. And he will miss a visit from Super Bowl champion New England on October 11. “The guys we have are the guys we’re playing with for the remainder of the season”.

In his one start filling in for an injured Romo in 2014, Weeden struggled, completing just 18-of-33 passes for 183 yards and two interceptions to just one touchdown. He was the No. 22 overall draft pick for the Cleveland Browns in 2012.

“We both were sick”, Jones said, speaking of himself and Romo.

A lot of it could depend on the Cowboys’ success in Romo’s absence. The rumors state that Tony Romo’s injury won’t require surgery, possibly shortening the timetable before he can return to the field.

At the time, the Cowboys were standing at 6-2, with the Arizona Cardinals visiting on November 2nd, 2014.

“The National Football League really is about adversity, in general”, Romo said.
