What It Means:

This basically gives the Cowboys a couple weeks to get a better sense of what Romo's trade value is looking like. If the market is non-existent as many anticipate, then he will be released.

Romo tossed -0.04 Passing Net Expected Points (NEP) per drop back on 127 drop backs in 2015, but generated 0.16 Passing NEP per drop back on 684 such plays in 2014, so it's tough to gauge expectations for what will be his age-37 season.
