Jerry Jones says he wants to leave it up to Wade Phillips to make the final call about whether Tony Romo will play. But Jerry will step in and tell Romo to sit down Sunday if he fears that he'll cause long-term damage to his fractured pinkie.
"That's the concern and there is that risk," Jerry said. "And it's fractured and the wrong kind of lick on it might make it more severe. But they've developed a way to protect it so that he can throw.
"It's so interesting in how he's explaining to me he's found out he can put the emphasis with the little finger on the [ring] finger and do what the little finger does. He said I just had to get it through in my mind and let me see how much I can throw it. He's trying to work with this ...
"This is a decision that Wade and Tony will have to make regarding the pain. As it would pertain to the long term risk, then I'll be a good observer of that decision."
Jerry has literally been hands-on with the decision making on this one, catching passes from Romo in the Cowboys' indoor facility yesterday morning. Romo wanted the owner to feel firsthand how much velocity he could put on the ball.
We're tracking a rumor that Jerry got into the role so much that he borrowed a pair of T.O.'s tights.
