London, England (SportsNetwork.com) - Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo returned to practice on Thursday for the first time since suffering a back injury 10 days ago. As he usually does, Romo missed Wednesdays session as the Cowboys began preparations for this Sundays game against Jacksonville in London. He has skipped most Wednesday practices this season as part of his regular schedule to ease the workload on his surgically repaired back. Romo, who underwent surgery for a herniated disc in his back late last year, again injured his back in the third quarter of an overtime loss to Washington on Oct. 27, although he did return for the final series of regulation and Dallas lone possession of overtime. The Cowboys initially said Romo had a contusion, but further tests eventually revealed two transverse process fractures. The transverse process is a small bony projection off the right and left side of each vertebrae. Like any injury, we have to get out test it out and see what you can do, push it a little bit, said Romo, who indicated he still has soreness and will continue treatment each day. At the same time, you have to be smart. Romo missed last Sundays game against Arizona and Brandon Weeden struggled in a 28-17 loss to the Cardinals. After Romo took part in the Cowboys meetings and walk-through at the hotel on Wednesday, Weeden took the first-team reps in practice. Weeden would again be the starter on Sunday if Romo is unable to play, but Cowboys owner/general manager Jerry Jones expects his three-time Pro Bowl quarterback to be on the field. Im anticipating him playing, theres no reason to think that he wont, said Jones on Thursday. My expectations are for him to play. Romo was in pads while speaking with the media on Thursday and didnt appear comfortable, looking stiff at the podium. He didnt give any indication as to whether he would play on Sunday, saying only he would be taking a day-by-day approach. Its improving each day, he added. I think if we do something positive each day, theres a good chance. If youre always waiting until you feel great to play, youll only play a couple of games a year. You compete, you go play. Theres guys who are banged up every week and go play. No one cares (if youre hurt) when you step out on the field on Sunday, you just go out and play. If Romo is unable to play Sunday, hell have extra time to rest with the Cowboys on their bye next week. Hakeem Olajuwon Jersey .A.

Scotland endured a frustrating night at Hampden and only avoided defeat when James McArthur scored with a header a minute from time to cancel out a strike from Fedor Cernych and secure a 1-1 draw.The result was a setback to Scotlands hopes of finishing top of Group F, following an impressive 5-1 victory in Malta in September. But Gordon Strachans team travel to Slovakia for their third match in the group on Tuesday and Robertson, the left-back, is pleased there is no time to dwell on two lost points.In a league or in internationals, if you have a game in three days, it is perfect because the boys can get over it, Robertson said.We are focused on Slovakia already and that has got to be the case, because if you dwell on this result, it will end up being a negative one on Tuesday and thats how it works. Cernych celebrates after he scores against Scotland We have experience from that at club level, from the Championship and Premier League and the SPFL, playing Saturday, Tuesday, Saturday, Tuesday, so I am sure the boys will get their head round what has happened and move on to Tuesday.Robertson is adamant the draw was not a particularly bad result, with Slovenia winning 1-0 against No 2 seed Slovakia.Scotland are now second place in Group F with four points from two games -- behind England, who defeated Malta 2-0 at Wembley.dddddddddddde got a point at the end and we wont know if it is a good result, a bad result or just a decent result until the end of the group, the former Dundee United player said. McArthur celebrates after scoring against Lithuania Slovenia beat Slovakia, so we are still in second place with four points and the second seeds are sitting on none from two games.But we have them next and they will want to put that right and we will obviously want to put Saturday night right, so it will be a big game on Tuesday.The away games, you need to try to be positive. Yes, it would be great to win, but if we get a positive result we will take it. You just never know until the end of the campaign. Watch NOW TV Watch Sky Sports for just ?￡6.99. No contract.
