FRISCO, Texas -- Tony Romos speech Tuesday was viewed by some as a concession speech, but not by?Dallas Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones.Its not a goodbye, Jones said Thursday. I think Tony has got five years left of really competing for a Super Bowl. I believe Tony will be the quarterback on a Super Bowl team. I believe that strongly. Were talking generic now, and I have no plans for him not to be part of the Dallas Cowboys. Not a consideration.Romo will be active for the first time this season against the Baltimore Ravens as Dak Prescotts backup after missing the first nine games because of a compression fracture in his back suffered on Aug. 25.Jones said its possible that even with Prescotts top play, Romo will remain with the team through the end of his contract. Romo is signed through 2019.Many have speculated that Romo will play elsewhere in 2017 because of the success the Cowboys have had with Prescott. The Cowboys have the NFLs best record at 8-1, and Prescott has 14 touchdown passes and just two interceptions. He has also run for four touchdowns.Its very tenable for me to see on a long-term basis us being strong at quarterback, Jones said. Thats where we are with these two.While tenable, it might not be realistic.Romo is set to make $14 million and count $24.7 million against the salary cap next year. Prescott has a $540,000 base salary next year with a $635,848 cap number. Releasing or trading Romo would result in a $5.1 million cap savings, but he would still count $19.6 million against the cap.Jones said Prescott has played well enough through eight games to withstand a poor half or couple of games for the Cowboys not to switch to Romo.While the Cowboys did not allow Romo the chance to compete for the starting job in practice, they are giving him some first-team snaps in practice, but Jones said that was not a concession made to the franchises all-time leader in passing yards and touchdowns.In the Jason Garrett era, the starter took all of the practice snaps with the first team, save when Romo sat out of Wednesday practices in 2014 and 15 to rest his twice surgically repaired back. This year, Mark Sanchez received just one series of work with the starters each Friday in the first nine weeks of the season.Its just a way to be ready, Jones said. I really dont want to sit here and think that we got two quarterbacks ready to play and one of them not be ready because he didnt take some snaps out there.The Cowboys are not taking away snaps from Prescott but adding snaps at the end of each team period.I think in this particular case you cant afford not to have Tony ready, Jones said.Jones called Romos speech poignant and so genuine and said the organization is benefiting from how Romo has handled the new role.If something were to happen to Prescott, he believes Romo will be ready.He is turning it on, Jones said. What you saw the other day in my mind was him turning it on. He is vested completely in being a part of a winning team. He has made that real clear. He wants to do any and everything he can do. The old adage, if we asked him to be the water boy, he wants to drown them with the water. Paul Arizin Jersey . 8 Kansas to a 64-63 win over Texas Tech on Tuesday night.

Sam Thaidays Four Nations campaign is almost certainly over after the veteran Kangaroos and Queensland forward suffering a suspected fractured eye socket.Thaiday was taken to hospital midway through the second half after being caught by the head of Englands James Graham in Australias 38-16 win at the London Stadium early on Monday (AEDT).It is the second time Grahams head has caused a serious injury to an opponent with England teammate Sam Burgess suffering the same injury during the 2014 NRL grand finalCoach Mal Meninga confirmed the news in his post-match press conference but absolved Canterbury skipper Graham of any blame.Unfortunately it will probably put him out of the game next week, Meninga said of Thaiday.I think it was accidental.Cooper Cronk, who was named man of the match, said Thaiday knew immediately that he had a serious problem and said the injury had taken some of the shine off a commprehensive win.ddddddddddddHe knew about it as soon as it happened and our fingers, toes and every hair follicle is crossed for him that its a positive scan result, Cronk said.There is no doubt that he will be part of our team in the final whether hes playing or not.Cronk also believes the squad - who have already lost Josh Mansour to a serious knee injury - is filled with enough quality to cope and claimed its the strongest hes been involved with since debuting in 2009.With no disrespect to the other squads weve had previously but we go deep into the 24-man roster, he said.Mal has stated he picked his best team tonight, and there will probably be changes through injury but as a senior player I am super confident you can bring in anyone in this squad they can do a job.
