Fantasy football start/sit advice, Week 12: Tony Romo
Tony Romo’s back injury hasn’t popped up on him in the past couple weeks. Should his fantasy owners

He'll get a big matchup in the division against the New York Giants. He played the Giants back on Oct. 19 and turned in one of his better games, completing 17 of his 23 passes for 279 yards, three scores and one interception. He had a season-high 12.1 yards per attempt to go with an impressive 135.7 passer rating -- even more impressive considering he had an interception.
There is really nothing negative on Romo this week outside of a concern of an aggravation to his back. He is on the road, but he actually has a higher passer rating in his road games this year. Plus, the forecast for the game in New Jersey looks good.
Fantasy impact: The reward outweighs the risk by a lot here, so Romo should be locked in as a top-eight play this week.
