With Tony Romo continuing to round into form following last season's back surgery, there's still a part of his game that needs improving as the Dallas Cowboys steadily march toward the regular season.
"It’s been OK. I think the deeper the ball goes down the field, it’s a little bit more inconsistent," Cowboys quarterbacks coach Wade Wilson told the Star-Telegram. "He’s thrown all the intermediates --- the fours and the seven routes and the deep outs – have been fine. It’s just the nine routes and the deep posts. Those things have been a little inconsistent. I think that’s all due to his back."
Though Romo isn't set to take any snaps during the Cowboys preseason opener against the San Diego Chargers on Thursday night, Wilson remains confident in his starting pivot's ability to improve as training camp wears on.
"He can get the ball down the field. That’s not an issue. As camp goes on, he’ll just get nothing but stronger and more confident in his throws." Wilson said.
"Hopefully with four days of complete rehab, he can come back on Saturday and start to look like his old self completely."
