The injury was initially reported as a back contusion. Since then, Romo has undergone a CT scan and had additional consultations with doctors and the Cowboys’ training staff. Club officials skirt questions about what was found — all Garrett will say is that the injury “came from physical contact” — but no one is calling it a contusion.

That suggests the injury is more significant.

“I don’t want to get into specifics about what it is,” said Romo, who did divulge the injury is not to a disk or related to his previous two back surgeries. “It will be something you’ll look at each day, figure out a way to manage it and go from there.

“It has nothing to do with back surgery or anything like that. It could have happened years ago and it would have been the same thing. It’s part of playing football.”

It could just be how much pain he's in and/or the stiffness in his back. I have a real bad back. There's days I have to be extra careful just to get out of be in the AM. Now add the fact that 300 lb linemen are trying to beat the stuffing out of you. He moved ok after his return but there's no telling how it would be after a night in bed. They'll give him a shot for pain and another to relax his back and see if he can go. I think he's listed as a game time decision because the team really has no clue if he can play or not.
