The Facts:
Owner/GM Jerry Jones said that Romo threw Sunday for the first time since breaking his left collarbone in the Oct. 25 loss to the New York Giants. The injury is expected to sideline Romo at least another three weeks, a source told ESPN.com's Calvin Watkins.

Team sources told ESPN's Chris Mortensen earlier Sunday that Romo was due for X-rays either Sunday or Monday, but Jones said after the game that X-rays weren't necessary at this point. "X-rays won't help us, relative to how and what degree it's mended and what degree it can take a lick," Jones said. "There may be some just to see if there's some kind of technical alignment or something like that, and I'm not real qualified or knowledgeable to talk about that. But we didn't think an X-ray or X-rays or those type of things will help us make a decision. It's going to be how it's feeling. ..." Jones believes there is value in finishing a season with a "good taste" in the Cowboys' mouth, which is why Romo could play in December even if Dallas is officially eliminated from playoff contention.
