The Dallas Cowboys had a bye week and sit at 7-3 before facing the Giants next week. Here’s some of latest news and rumors.

Romo made most of bye, says Jerry

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said Tony Romo made the most of the bye week amid the quarterback’s back injury.

“I think it’s really beneficial, and he knows how to use it,” Jones said Tuesday, via NFL.com. “I think by the time we kick off Sunday, he will have maximized this break for himself and for us.

“I was really pleased he had the outing he had in London. It certainly showed that with a couple more weeks of just simple letting it rest, if no other thing, then he'll be in better shape in that particular area of his back.”

With his back injury, Romo is in for a rough stretch.

The Cowboys play three games in 12 days starting this Sunday. The Cowboys have back-to-back Thursday night games--including the Thanksgiving Day game against the Eagles--after the Giants game on Sunday.
