The Facts:
After taking a hard shot to the ribs just before halftime of last night’s win over the Giants, Romo elected to not get an X-ray, or take any pain medication before coming back to play the second half. The team said at that point he just had the wind knocked out of him, but he was clearly in pain as the second half progressed. Romo will have those X-rays today.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
As PFT's Darin Gantt suggests, it won’t be a surprise if they show something. Romo came back to play with a broken rib and a punctured lung against the 49ers two years ago, so his toughness was never in question. “You take some hits sometimes and you’ve got to come back from it,” Romo said, via Todd Archer of ESPNDallas.com. “We had plenty of guys do the same thing and it was no different. You get back out there and play. I’ll be fine.” Gantt summed up: "As long as today’s tests don’t show more damage than was apparent, he should continue to do just that."
