Tony Romo injury update: Fantasy value is completely fine for first road game
Tony Romo’s rib gave all of his owners quite a scare on Sunday. We break down the fantasy implications.
He was solid against the Giants in Week 1 to the tune of 263 yards, two TDs and one pick. The 5.4 yards per attempt in that game was well below his career average of 7.9. Romo played in 16 games in back-to-back seasons over the past two years and his stats came in bunches last year, totaling 4,903 passing yards and 28 TDs.
Fantasy impact: There's no reason to worry about Romo this week and, when his team is at 100 percent, his weapons are among the best in the league. The Chiefs may be coming off a drubbing of the Jaguars in Week 1, but it won't be so easy this week. Outside of Eric Berry at strong safety, their secondary is a little below average and Dez Bryant should win most of his matchups against corner Brandon Flowers. As long as he gets time, Romo is a top-10 QB this week with big-time upside.
