Tony Romo Back Under Center as Cowboys Ramp Up Off-Season Drills

Tony Romo, back in the huddle.

That was the scene at Valley Ranch on Monday and every day for the next couple weeks as Phase 2 of the Cowboys’ off-season program commences.

In the two-week Phase 1, only strength and conditioning coaches were allowed on the field. But as we ramp up to Organized Team Activities on May 26, now the full coaching staff can accompany and supervise players.

Although the sessions are for individual instructions and void of offense vs. defense drills, it’s beginning to look a little more like football at Valley Ranch.

And by next weekend the Cowboys – via the draft - will have new faces to put in new places.

A native Texan who was born in Duncanville and graduated from UT-Arlington, Richie Whitt has been a mainstay in the Metroplex media since 1986. He’s held prominent roles on all media platforms including newspaper (Fort Worth Star-Telegram, Dallas Observer), radio (105.3 The Fan) and TV (co-host on TXA 21 and numerous guest appearances, including NBC 5). He currently lives in McKinney with his wife, Sybil, and two very spoiled dogs.
