Cowboys HC Jason Garrett announced Saturday that QB Tony Romo did, in fact, undergo an MRI on his back Friday. The test revealed that Romo has a broken bone in his back, per Clarence Hill.
Garrett said that there’s currently no timetable for his return, but he is expected to return at some point this season, per Hill.
This means that rookie QB Dak Prescott could open the year as the Cowboys’ starter.
It’s worth mentioning that Romo has played with fractures in his back before, and explains why Garrett has refused to rule him out for the opener.
