The Cowboys came out of yesterday's game healthy, but have a short week before Thursday's Thanksgiving day matchup against the Oakland Raiders.

Quarterback Tony Romo has been diagnosed with a bruised hip from when he tackled DeAngelo Hall after Hall picked up a fumble by Marion Barber. Romo didn't miss a snap and finished the game. He said after the game that he will start on Thursday and the injury isn't significant.

Cornerback Mike Jenkins got his bell rung on the Redskins' last drive of the game, but said after the game he was fine but, "I was out of it for a few minutes." He played through the bicep bruise he suffered against the Packers and will do so again on Thursday.

Jenkins was held out of practice on Monday however as Coach Wade Phillips said he wanted to be cautious with injured players. Linebacker Keith Brooking (foot) was limited in practice and Tight end Jason Witten (ankle) was held out of practice on Monday.

DeMarcus Ware (foot), Gerald Sensabaugh (thumb), David Buehler (toe), and Marion Barber (thumb) all played through their injuries with no problem and are expected to do the same this week.

Tackle Marc Colombo (fibula) and Safety Ken Hamlin (ankle) are expected to miss this week's game.

Kickoff returner Allen Rossum has been released and corner Cletis Gordon was signed to the team to take Rossum's spot.
