Romo sign's contract

Tony Romo's preseason just got better.
The fourth-year quarterback signed a two-year, $3.9 million deal, which includes a $2 million signing bonus earlier this afternoon.

Because Romo was already signed through this season, the deal is basically a one-year extension. He could make another $1 million in incentives if he takes a certain amount of snaps over the next two seasons.

Stuck in traffic on his way to Texas Stadium, Romo said, "At the end of the day, the reason I want to stay here is because the Joneses are about winning. The coaching staff has instilled some confidence in me, and I've shown them I can be somewhat successful."

The Cowboys wanted to sign Romo to a longer deal, but both sides decided to focus on the next couple of seasons.

"They stepped up to the plate," Romo said of Jerry and Stephen Jones. "Personally, it's nice to see Jerry show this type of commitment. I think it will be beneficial for both sides

Re: Romo sign's contract

I've heard where Parcells could keep Drew Bledsoe on a short leash this year.

Can Tony Romo be a franchise QB?

As a long time Cowboy fan...nope...never...not in this lifetime...he has had a few years to knock oversome stiffs and hasn't done it...not in the class of Roger Staubach, Aikman or Meredith...maybe in the company of Craig Morton, and higher up than say Gary Hogeboom, Clint Longely, Glen Carano, Carter, Henson, Hutchinson, and a host of others

Cool Re: Romo sign's contract

Parcells really likes this kid. He didn't even bring in a veteran to camp this year as insurance.
