Cowboys want to 'reward' Romo

05:53 AM ET 02.21 | Now publicly, the push is twofold. Don't misunderstand the Dallas Cowboys' position on wanting to give Tony Romo a contract extension. It's not only being discussed because the Cowboys will gain valuable and much-needed salary cap space. Stephen Jones, the team's executive vice president, said Wednesday that the franchise would like to give Romo an extension to "reward" someone they consider to be a "great quarterback." "I think on this particular situation with Tony is we think we have a great quarterback and we want him to be our quarterback here for the next 4-5 years," Jones told 105.3 The Fan [KRLD-FM]. "We're fortunate that we have a really good quarterback, if not a great one. He deserves to be paid. He's in the last year of his contract."

As far as I'm concerned the Cowboys should keep Romo for the next few years. This message is endorsed by Jim Hazlett..
