Tony Romo continues to make progress in his return from a broken left collarbone, taking part in 11-on-11 drills with the scout team late last week and is expected to do so again this week.

Coach Jason Garrett said they haven’t finalized plans for Romo’s practice schedule this week, but it looks as though Romo will get more action Thursday and Friday rather than Wednesday.

"We'll probably keep him limited and not throwing three consecutive days," Garret said. "But we should get a couple good throwing days in. He had a good practice on Friday."

Romo is eligible to return for the Nov. 22 game at Miami.

As far as Romo’s conditioning, Garrett said: “He’s working on it.”
