Tony Romo and the Dallas Cowboys had a season to forget in 2015.
Romo was sacked and broke his left collarbone in Week 2. They didn’t know it at the time, but that ended the Cowboys’ season. They endured a 7-game losing streak before Romo returned in Week 11, but it was too late. Then to add insult to injury, Romo hurt the left shoulder again, ending his season. Dallas finished 4-12 a season after going 12-4.
Romo recently had a procedure done on the collarbone, but he’s expected to be ready for the start of 2016.
The Cowboys will play their NFC East Division foes in home-and-home matchups as per usual, but will also face the teams from the AFC North and NFC North. Five teams on the schedule made the playoffs a season ago, including rival Washington.
