Cowboys Quarterback Romo Has Season-Ending Surgery

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo has underdone season-ending back surgery, the team said on Friday. Romo had a procedure to repair an injury incurred in last Sunday's game against the Washington Redskins, Dallas head coach Jason Garrett said. Back-up quarterback Kyle Orton will start in Sunday's crucial clash with the Philadelphia Eagles. The winner will advance to the NFL playoffs, while the loser's season will be over.
