Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo joins his team in practice and is even optimistic that things will get better for them.

The Cowboys' official Twitter account released a photo showing the 35-year-old in practice while sporting a helmet and his number 9 jersey. The image also shows the kind of leadership he possesses as the Cowboys' QB.


NFL.com noted that this picture was taken on Thursday, Nov. 19. The California-born football player was injured during their game against the Philadelphia Eagles on Week 2, informed the site. Prior to this photo, Desmond Purnell of NFL Network posted an image of Romo while throwing drills on the field.

He suffered from a broken left clavicle during the match, leaving the Cowboys' owner Jerry Jones broken-hearted, another NFL.com report informed. It was scary for the team as it had the potential of being a season-ending injury.

Yet, the 2014 MVP candidate is now back and has overcome that challenge in his career. He is even determined to share his positive outlook to his teammates. For him, this season is far from over and is more motivated than ever to do well, the site stated.

"I think the guys understand where we're at. I think they also understand that the season is not over. It's far from it. I think right now we just need to understand that we're getting started, and we've got to go do our job and do it to the best of our ability and start getting this thing on the roll," Romo said.

This determination from Romo is truly inspiring, despite a reported 2-7 win-loss record the team now has.

This reflects how Jones described him right after the news regarding his injury surfaced.

"It's not that we haven't literally had a similar situation more than one time before and certainly no one has pushed up his expectations any higher than Tony about what he can do for us. ... He's a competitor," Jones said.

ESPN confirmed that Romo will be playing against the Miami Dolphin on Sunday, Nov. 22.

What to expect on Sunday?

"The Ticket's" show host Bob Sturm shared his opinions on the immediate impact of Romo's return for the Cowboys, The Dallas Morning News informed.

Sturm said that wide receiver will be the one to benefit the most from it is Cole Beasley. He thinks that the Cowboys will use him again like they did recently because he "was borderline dominant."

Yet, Sturm acknowledged that Romo's comeback is sure to benefit everyone.
