DMN Blog: Tony Romo speaks

By Todd Archer

Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo addressed the media following Tuesday's OTA, touching on a number of subjects.

Here are his thoughts:

On Terrell Owens' release: "That's not up to any of us players to decide. That's why we're players. The organization and management decides those things. We're all at risk every offseason, depending upon everything. You always want to go out there and try to have all the guys you play with every year. That just doesn't happen. We have to go with the guys we have here now, go forward and keep improving."

On replacing Owens' production: "It's going to figure itself out. Either you're going to be able to or not. He's a great player and it's always difficult to replace someone who's had the success and been the dominant player he's been over the years. But guys have to step up and pick up the slack. Guys are working hard, I know that. Whether they're going to do it, we're going to find out this year. But I definitely have confidence in the young guys to step up and perform."

On Roy Williams: "He's worked real hard this off-season. We came in, in February. We got in three with Joe Juraszek and he's really made an emphasis to try to come in in great shape, to get stronger and it's exciting to see him. He had a great first day today. I think you guys saw some of the routes he ran and they were pretty good. I'm excited to see him keep progressing and see where this can go."
