You might have heard by now, but Cowboys QB Tony Romo has pretty much ruled himself out of Sunday's game against the Bucs.

On a radio appearance Tuesday night in Dallas, Romo said former Buc Brad Johnson is likely to play this week as Romo continues to deal with a broken pinkie finger on his throwing hand.

"Brad is going to go this week unless something happens that I don't foresee," Romo said. "It will be very difficult to change."

Romo also hinted that he might miss the following game at the Giants. That scenario would allow him to rest for another three weeks since the Cowboys have a bye on Nov. 9.
