Cowboys' Romo, Witten miss practice

Irving, TX (Sports Network) - Wednesday practice was not on the agenda for Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo and tight end Jason Witten. Coach Wade Phillips said that Romo is ill and Witten has a sprained ankle.

Dallas takes on division rival Philadelphia on Sunday in a game that both must win to have any chance of making the playoffs. A victory puts the Cowboys into the post-season, while the Eagles need help to continue their season.

Last Saturday, the Cowboys lost 33-24 to Baltimore and Philadelphia fell to the Redskins 10-3 on Sunday.
