The Dallas Cowboys are 2-0 and in first place in the NFC East. But it came with a price. 

According to the NFL, Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo fractured his left clavicle during last night's game against the Philadelphia Eagles and is expected to miss eight weeks. Romo had injured the same clavicle a couple of years ago. 

Typically, a broken clavicle takes eight weeks to heal, but the Cowboys are optimistic he'll return earlier. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones didn't take the news well, stating, "It broke my heart."

We are only two weeks into the season, and the Cowboys are already dealing with two major injuries to their offense. Last week against the New York Giants, wide receiver Dez Bryant broke his left ankle and is expected to miss 10-12 weeks. He recently underwent ankle surgery.

Currently, Brandon Weeden is the second-string quarterback and is expected to start Sunday at home against the Atlanta Falcons.

The next six games on the docket for the Cowboys are as follows: at New Orleans Saints, home against New England Patriots, a bye week, at New York Giants, home against Seattle Seahawks and home against Philadelphia Eagles. 

Romo is projected to return on Sunday, Nov. 15 at Tampa Bay Buccaneers. 

It will be a rough eight weeks for the Cowboys. They are projected to win the NFC East and make it to the playoffs for the second consecutive year. Despite the two major injuries, the Cowboys are determined to move on from this and focus on the Falcons.

Romo is expected to be placed on the injured reserve/designated-to-return list.  

In two games this season, Romo threw for 551 yards with three touchdowns and two interceptions. He finished tied for third in the MVP voting last season with former teammate DeMarco Murray.
