EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – Before the New York Giants even arrived at MetLife Stadium on Saturday night, they knew. Their Week 1 opponent, the Dallas Cowboys, had lost their starting quarterback for an extended period of time. It would have a direct impact on their upcoming preparation and possibly their playoff aspirations.
Tony Romo won't be playing against the Giants in the season opener on Sept. 11 in Texas. Preseason sensation Dak Prescott probably will start.
Giants players admitted hearing about it from television, social media and general conversation among players.
