Romo returns to throwing at Cowboys practice

As the Dallas Cowboys return from their bye week, quarterback Tony Romo has returned to throwing.

While it's still unknown when exactly he's expected to be ready for game action, the veteran was seen running play-action fakes and throwing passes out of pads during Wednesday's practice.

It was the first practice open to media that Romo has participated in, albeit on a limited basis, since being ruled out with a back injury before the season.

It's unlikely he'll be active for Sunday night's game against the Philadelphia Eagles, but his return to throwing means the Cowboys' quarterback decision will be coming soon.
