ARLINGTON (105.3 THE FAN) — Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett says the team anticipates that Tony Romo will play on Sunday against Arizona after the quarterback suffered a back contusion in Monday night’s loss to the Redskins.

The team is still awaiting the results of an MRI taken Tuesday, Garrett announced this afternoon.

Romo was injured in the third quarter when Redskins linebacker Keenan Robinson appeared to deliver a knee to Romo’s back on a third down sack. Brandon Weeden entered the game and played two series while Romo received medical attention in the team’s locker room.

“Obviously he was cleared to go back in the game last night, so we felt good enough about that when the initial X-rays were negative,” said Garrett on Tuesday. “They want to do some more extensive tests. We’ll find out more as the day goes on.”
