Romo Won't Play Much, If At All in HoF Game

Tony Romo isn't sure if he'll participate in the Hall of Fame Game against the Dolphins on Sunday

Echoing what owner and general manager Jerry Jones said this week, quarterback Tony Romo said he isn’t certain whether he’ll play in the Hall of Fame Game against the Dolphins on Sunday. If he does play, it won’t be very much.

“If I did play, it would be a series, whether you went eight plays or three plays, I’m not sure how much that is going to affect that,” Romo said, per the Dallas Morning News. “Saying that, I still want to play every time I suit up.”

It’s worth remembering that Romo has only been practicing for a little over a week, after missing all of organized team activities and mini-camp while recovering from minor back surgery. Owner and general manager Jerry Jones admitted recently that they’ll keep the injury in mind when making their decision.

“We just want to use our head,” Jones said. “We’ve got five (preseason) games to get the work in.”
