Stephen Jones, the Executive Vice President of the Dallas Cowboys and son of owner Jerry Jones, believes starting quarterback Tony Romo should be recovered from back surgery and ready not just for Week 1 of the NFL season, but for the start of training camp in July. Jahlani Tavai Lions Jersey . According to ESPN, Jones made the announcement during a conference call with season ticket holders on Thursday. "Hes on schedule if not ahead of schedule," Jones said. "Hes throwing the ball around, we not only think hell be ready for opening week, hell start up at training camp and be ready to go." Jones also said that if Romo had not undergone back surgery two days before the end of the NFL season, the Cowboys may have beaten the Philadelphia Eagles to enter the post-season. "Hes obviously a tremendous competitor, and in our mind he kept us in all season long with a defense that was depleted with injuries, with a chance to win the NFC East in the last game of the year. And if he had played in that game, that game might have gone in a different direction." The Cowboys lost to the Eagles 22-21, causing them to miss the playoffs for a fourth straight year. Romos season-ending back surgery was to repair a herniated disk. He had previously undergone back surgery in 2012 to remove a cyst. The Cowboys added quarterbacks Brandon Weeden and Caleb Hanie in the offseason and most recently signed QB Dustin Vaughn, who went undrafted. Jahlani Tavai Jersey . In the opener of the World Group first-round series, world No. 18 Kei Nishikori defeated Peter Polansky of Thornhill, Ont. Austin Bryant Youth Jersey.C. -- The Carolina Panthers announced Thursday theyve signed free agent wide receiver Jerricho Cotchery to a two-year contract, helping rebuild a depleted wide receiving corps.MIAMI - So much intrigue, crammed into 14 seconds. A pair of former Connecticut stars, going 1-on-1 as if they were willing to decide it themselves. A one-point game, one team about to end a losing streak and a tip-in try that added more drama with every bounce off the rim.Definitely an experience, Luol Deng said.For the Miami Heat, a welcomed one.Deng scored 26 points, Chris Bosh and Mario Chalmers each added 20 and the Heat watched Charlotte miss three potential go-ahead shots in the final seconds on the way to beating the Hornets 94-93 on Sunday night and snapping a three-game home slide.It was a good step, Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said.Chalmers had 10 assists for his second double-double of the season and Shabazz Napier scored 14 for the Heat.Al Jefferson finished with 22 points and 12 rebounds for Charlotte, which got 17 points from Lance Stephenson and 16 from Kemba Walker but wound up seeing its skid reach five games. The Hornets trailed by nine at the half and then led by as many as eight in the fourth, before Miami rallied.The stretch of games weve played has definitely taken their toll on our confidence, Hornets coach Steve Clifford said.Working from the right side of the lane, Bosh spun free from Cody Zeller and scored from the right baseline to give Miami a 94-93 lead with 31 seconds remaining.Thats when the fun started.Walker missed with 26 seconds left and Charlotte down by one. The Heat got the rebound and the Hornets appeared to be trying to foul Chalmers near midcourt.No foul was called, the ball got knocked away and after a deflection out of bounds the Hornets had possession with 14 seconds remaining. Walker went at Napier — UConn great vs. UConn great — and missed a short jumper, Jefferson got a good try at the tip, and the ball bounced off the rim as the horn sounded.I got a pretty good look, Walker said.Said Bosh: Im just glad we won. For real.Chharlottes lead was eight midway through the fourth, and the Heat were mired in a stretch where they had two field goals in more than 9 minutes. Calvin Johnson Lions Jersey. . But Miami put together a flurry, setting up the back-and-forth finish.Bosh hit a 3-pointer, Napier had a pair of free throws after a steal and then — off a drive-and-dish by Chalmers — Napier added a 3-pointer to cap an eight-point, 43-second burst and give Miami an 87-86 lead.There were four more lead changes from there.We had our shots, Jefferson said. We had the shots we wanted. We just didnt make them.TIP-INSHornets: Stephenson isnt exactly a fan favourite in Miami, given his role in the Pacers-Heat rivalry in recent seasons. They hate me everywhere, he told fans sitting courtside during a fourth-quarter stoppage. ... Charlotte isnt planning on having F Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (right foot) back anytime soon, and G P.J. Hairston (ankle) is also likely out for a few more days, Clifford said.Heat: G Dwyane Wade (left hamstring) missed his sixth straight game. ... G Norris Cole (dislocated finger) sat for the second straight game and F Chris Andersen departed with 2:59 left in the first quarter with a right ankle sprain. ... Houston Astros draft pick Bryan Radziewski, a former University of Miami star left-hander, was part of the sold-out crowd.BIG THIRDCharlotte opened the second half on an 11-2 run, on the way to outscoring Miami 28-14 in the first 12 minutes following intermission. The Heat won despite shooting 38 per cent in the second half.CLOSING UNITPartly because of injuries, partly because the unit was working, Spoelstra didnt make a single substitution in the final 7:28. Chalmers got to the foul line 10 times in the fourth quarter and Miami got 15 free throws to Charlottes three in the final period.UP NEXTHornets: Host the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday.Heat: Host Golden State on Tuesday. Wholeslae Jerseys NFL Jerseys CheapWholesale NBA Jerseys Cheap NHL Jerseys Cheap MLB Jerseys Wholesale Soccer Jerseys Cheap College Jerseys Cheap Football Jerseys Cheap Basketball Jerseys Cheap Baseball Jerseys ' ' '
