FRISCO, Texas -- The Dallas Cowboys have announced the signing of veteran quarterback Mark Sanchez, but they have kept starting QB Tony Romo on the active roster for at least another day.
Sunday marked the first day the Cowboys could have placed Romo on injured reserve, which means he would be able to return later in the regular season.
To make room for Sanchez, the Cowboys waived quarterback Jameill Showers.
If the Cowboys choose to place Romo on injured reserve, he would miss the first eight weeks of the season and be eligible to play Nov. 6 at the Cleveland Browns.
The longer they take to make a roster move, the more likely it is they will carry Romo on the active roster and deactivate him each week until he is healthy.
