Tony Romo’s Injury Likely To Sideline QB 8-10 Weeks (Hello, Jon Kitna Era)

Tony Romo may have thrown his last pass of the Cowboys disastrous 2010 campaign after suffering an injury to his collarbone Monday night.

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the early word on the recovery time for Romo’s broken clavicle is 8-10 weeks. Considering it is currently Week 7, and the Cowboys don’t seem playoff-bound, that would mean it’s season-ending.

Based on some cursory research (yay, Wikipedia!) of this injury, the arm must be immobilized for 3-4 weeks before therapy can begin. Full strength in the injured area usually returns in 9-12 months. In the meantime, it’s Jon Kitna time.

As always, check in with SB Nation’s Blogging the Boys for what will likely be a week of infinite sadness.
