Cowboys coach Jason Garrett: Tony Romo doesn't need to save the day

IRVING, Texas -- Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo took part in Wednesday morning's walk-through, but he is following his normal practice schedule of not taking part in Wednesday's practice before being a full-go Thursday and Friday.

Coach Jason Garrett said the Cowboys wanted to keep Romo on the routine he has had for the past two seasons to preserve and strengthen his back. It's not related to the broken collarbone that kept him out for the past seven games.

But Romo will start Sunday against the Miami Dolphins, and Garrett does not want him to feel like he has to carry the day.
