NFL Notes: Cowboys, Rams, Ravens & Titans

Cowboys

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones told reporters after Monday’s win over the Lions that QB Tony Romo will not take a snap in their regular season finale against the Eagles.

“Because I don’t like the circumstance it would come under, which would be injury,” Jones said, via ESPN.com. “…We don’t feel like that any game we’d get for him that him stepping out there running a few plays or series would be worth the risk.”
