Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo’s surgery was a success.
The Cowboys announced this evening that Romo underwent surgery on his left clavicle and will need a recovery period of six to eight weeks before he can begin football activities. That would suggest Romo should be ready to go for minicamp.
As always, the Cowboys termed the surgery “successful.” We’ve still yet to see a team describe a player’s surgery as “unsuccessful.”
The surgical procedure shaved down the collarbone that Romo broke twice last season, in an attempt to make it less susceptible to future injuries. The Cowboys desperately want to keep Romo healthy: Over their last 36 games, the Cowboys are 17-5 with Romo and 1-13 without him.
