Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo threw the ball at Wednesday’s practice, which marked a step forward in his return from a broken bone in his back albeit one that took place without Romo wearing a helmet, jersey or any of the other pieces of equipment that would have allowed him to be an official participant in the session.

Romo is throwing again at Thursday’s practice, although he’s doing so in a different outfit. Romo is wearing a helmet and jersey for the first time since getting hurt in the preseason.

Before the practice got underway on Thursday, Cowboys coach Jason Garrett said that Romo looked good on Wednesday and deemed his status as “day-to-day” in terms of when he might be able to move to a fuller workload.

There’s no reason for the Cowboys to officially make it known if they’re sticking with Dak Prescott as their starting quarterback until that happens, although it does appear the day that call will have to be made is drawing closer.
