Jones expects QB Romo to start in London

Published

on

Tony Romo is likely to be back in the starting lineup for the Dallas Cowboys for Sunday’s game in London.

Romo will start if his back cooperates, owner Jerry Jones said, including participating in practice and coming through a lengthy eight-hour flight to England without any setbacks.

“I do see him playing,” Jones told the NFL Network. “He’s going on the trip to London, and logic tells you that we wouldn’t have him make that trip to London and back if we didn’t think he was going to play, so it does depend on the type of week he has at practice. But if he has the week we expect, he should be our quarterback.”

Brandon Weeden started and threw two interceptions in a 28-17 loss to the Arizona Cardinals that dropped Dallas to 6-3 with consecutive losses at home. Romo was hurt Oct. 27 in the Monday night loss to the Washington Redskins and diagnosed with a back contusion.

Jones said the Cowboys will accomodate Romo with a fully reclining seat on the flight to England.

Whether Romo holds up within the Week 10 game against Jacksonville (1-8) is another story.

The stout offensive line will get a test from the Jaguars’ pass rush which has 27 sacks.
