With Tony Romo out due to a broken clavicle, the Cowboys will explore veteran options at quarterback.
ESPN’s Chris Mortensen said during halftime of the Colts-Jets Monday Night Football broadcast that Josh Johnson, Christian Ponder and Matt Flynn are among the names expected to work out for the Cowboys this week. That meshes with a similar report by ESPN’s Ed Werder.
The Fort Worth-Star Telegram reported that the workout will take place Tuesday and will also include McLeod Bethel-Thompson.
Brandon Weeden replaced Romo Sunday and is the quarterback for now. The Cowboys kept Romo and Weeden as their only active roster quarterbacks but have two on the practice squad, Jameill Showers and Kellen Moore.
Romo doesn’t plan to have surgery and is expected to be out for eight weeks.
