LONDON - Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo sat out the teams first practice in London on Wednesday because of his injured back. Calum Chambers Arsenal Jersey UK .Romo, who missed last Sundays 28-17 loss to the Arizona Cardinals with his third back injury in the last 18 months, made the trip to England but stayed at the hotel while the rest of his teammates practiced at Allianz Park.Its just based on the feedback, and what hes told us how he feels, Cowboys coach Jason Garrett said. Is it more worthwhile to stay there and get treatment, or come over here and watch practice and stand up for a couple of hours? It makes sense to stay there and get some treatment.The Cowboys (6-3) face the Jacksonville Jaguars (1- on Sunday at Wembley Stadium, the last of three regular-season NFL games in London this year.Instead of Romo, backup Brandon Weeden took the snaps during practice on Wednesday. Weeden, who was dumped by Cleveland two seasons after getting drafted in the first round in 2012, threw two interceptions against Arizona and couldnt get the Dallas offence into the end zone until the game was out of reach. He now has 25 touchdowns and 27 interceptions in his career.Garrett, however, remained optimistic that Romo would be ready for Sunday.Obviously, all these things are medical decisions. Really important for our medical team to weigh in on what our players have, Garrett said. Getting feedback from the player, as to how they feel, how they handle the workload, is really, really important. And then you come up with what you need to do during the week to get them prepared to play their best on Sunday.Cowboys tight end Jason Witten said Romo seemed to be on the mend after the long trip to London.I know he felt good from the plane, Witten said. Hes tough, he really is, so I know hes going to do everything he can (to play Sunday).Romo has fractures in two small bones in his back. The injury is unrelated to a herniated disk sustained last year and to off-season surgery to remove a cyst earlier in 2013.Despite the focus on Romo and how hes feeling, Garrett said the attention was a not a distraction for Weeden, who was 18 of 33 for 183 yards with one touchdown as the Cowboys dropped their second straight game last weekend following a six-game winning streak.Theres a lot of media attention on the NFL, on the Cowboys, and certainly if youre the quarterback of the Cowboys, theres a lot of media attention that comes with that, Garrett said. If youre that guy, or someone around that guy, its just part of the deal. It comes with the dinner, as they say, and you get yourself ready to go.Even if Romo says he is ready to go and given clearance by the medical team, Garrett and his assistants will make the ultimate decision based on his performances in practice.We as coaches, the football people, were most interested in function, how is the player functioning, Garrett said. He might say this, the doctor may say this, but what we see is this.We have to make the best decision during the week to get him ready to play on Sunday.___Online:AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Jack Wilshere Arsenal Jersey UK . 8 Sergio Parisse for its penultimate Six Nations match against Ireland at Lansdowne Road.

Joseph Robert Patterson, 27, is expected to be arraigned later this week in the death of 2-year-old Tyrese Robert Ruffin, who died two days after being hospitalized with severe head injuries. Investigators allege that Patterson, the boyfriend of the childs mother, assaulted Tyrese on Oct. 9 while the two were alone in a Sioux Falls apartment. Patterson was indicted by a grand jury on Friday, Lincoln County states attorney Tom Wollman said. He was initially jailed on charges of aggravated assault and aggravated battery, though prosecutors pursued more serious charges after the boys death. A second-degree murder conviction carries a mandatory life sentence, while first-degree manslaughter carries a maximum sentence of life in prison. The charges accuse Patterson of intentionally or recklessly injuring Tyrese by causing brain damage or bleeding of the skull, from blows, shaking or making the boys head hit an object or surface. Pattersons lawyer, Tim Rensch, said his client is "absolutely and totally not guilty." Rensch said he could not yet discuss tthe case in detail because he hadnt received all of the paperwork. Per Mertesacker Jersey UK. Peterson, who has said he found out the boy was his son only about two months ago, had been working with Tyreses mother to arrange a meeting with the boy when he received a call that the child was hospitalized with severe injuries. Peterson said he raced to South Dakota and saw Tyrese for the first time a day before he died. Peterson returned to Sioux Falls on Wednesday to attend Tyreses funeral. Lincoln County court records show a July 2012 protection order was taken out against Patterson, in which he had to stay 1,000 feet away from a former girlfriend, their son and her two other boys for five years. The woman told the court that Patterson spanked her three-year-old sons bare bottom until it had welts after hearing the boy acted up at church. The woman asked the court to drop the protection order two months later, saying she wanted their son to be raised by both his mother and father. Prosecutors also are asking a judge to withdraw a suspended sentence Patterson received for a 2012 domestic assault conviction, saying he violated the deal that required him to show no violent, threatening or assaultive behaviour for three years. A hearing on that motion is scheduled for Oct. 30.
