DALLAS — Sources close to Tony Romo’s collarbones, the long bones that stretch between the sternum and shoulder, say the oft-injured clavicles are really hoping Cowboys rookie Dak Prescott comes out of his recent slump so they don’t get shattered again.
“They want Tony to retire,” said a body part that is located above the collarbones. “They’ve had enough. They just can’t handle the kind of contact that comes with playing in the NFL anymore. They break every time they’re touched now, but Tony won’t listen to reason. Or repeated pain and national humiliation.”
The collarbones were initially terrified that they would be forced back into action at midseason, but Prescott’s emergence kept them safe on the sidelines.
