Following up on the
ongoing story. ... As to Romo, you may be able to miss him without blinking. HC Jason Garrett told 105.3 The Fan on Friday that Romo may not make the usual starting-quarterback cameo in the extra preseason game that the Cowboys will play against the Dolphins. “It’s one of those deals where I suppose he could play five plays or whatever, but we might lean to no plays,’’ Garrett said. “But the clock starts on our [first-teamers] in Week 2 of the preseason. So that’s not going to be Tony’s game.’’

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:

Remember, Romo had offseason surgery to remove a cyst from his back, causing him to miss the offseason program and to be limited in training camp, so far. So the possibility we won't see him at all seems greawt. Backup Kyle Orton also apparently won’t play. “That’s going to be a Nick Stephens game and an Alex Tanney game,” Garrett said. ... Not that it matters. We'll all be watching the first game of the season no matter who plays. It'll just be a little less interesting than it would have been.
