Tony Romo’s season is over, Jerry Jones confirms
Tony Romo won’t play for the Dallas Cowboys again this season.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones confirmed that Romo’s season is finished after the starting quarterback sustained a hairline fracture in his left collarbone on the last play of the third quarter in a 33-14 loss to the Carolina Panthers on Thursday.
Jones, during a radio interview on 105.3 The Fan, said Romo will not have to undergo surgery but would not return this season. Romo underwent a CT scan Friday morning confirmed the diagnosis.
It’s in the same area of Romo’s previous break that sidelined him for seven games earlier this season. The Cowboys went 0-7 without Romo.
Romo had the same injury in 2010, as well.
