Redskins vs. Cowboys: Tony Romo and Felix Jones Latest Dallas Injury Updates

As the Dallas Cowboys come off an emotional 27-24 overtime win against the San Francisco 49ers and prepare for their big matchup with the Washington Redskins Monday night, we have news on several injured players.

Starting quarterback Tony Romo looks like he's all set to start tonight, despite suffering a punctured lung and a fractured rib last Sunday. The 31-year-old quarterback says he got better as last week progressed, but he's sure to be in pain for about the next month or so.

Romo did participate in Sunday's walk-through. He will be wearing a protective vest and will probably take some kind of pain-killing injection before the game. Despite that, he proclaimed himself "good to go" for the game, and I expect him to start.

He will likely have receiver Dez Bryant back from a quad injury as well.

Running back Felix Jones also participated in Sunday's walk-through after being limited in practice on Saturday. It is likely that Jones will play through his shoulder injury, though I don't expect him to get a full load of carries. More than likely, the fourth-year back out of Arkansas will split carries with Tashard Choice and rookie DeMarco Murray.

The Cowboys are as banged up as any team in the NFL right now, and facing the rival Redskins—who are 2-0 and on top of the NFC East—they need all the help they can get. Washington is off to a remarkable start, and Dallas needs to stem that tide.

Getting Romo, Bryant and Jones back will go a long way toward helping the Cowboys pull out a win tonight.
