Cowboys fans must have been wondering why one of their offensive lineman was wearing the number 9 while taking the field Saturday at the team’s training camp, until they realized that well, it was their quarterback.
Tony Romo, who’s clearly taken on the 2014 Eddie Lacy offseason diet plan moseyed on into camp today in Oxnard, California look unreasonably fat and sluggish.
The unflattering photo taken of Romo went viral and had Dallas fans concerned their QB was overweight.
Photographers and other media members took pictures and video of Romo and other Cowboys running onto the field Saturday:

Who knows, maybe the weight was intended as extra padding for the all to fragile collar bone this season.
