December 22, 2004
Bill Parcells is sticking with Vinny Testaverde as his starting quarterback this weekend against the Redskins, according to the AP. However, Parcells may pull Testaverde at some point in the game in favor of Tony Romo, who he's told to be ready to take the first snaps of his two-year NFL career.

November 23, 2004
Bill Parcells said he should know today whether Vinny Testaverde or Drew Henson will start on Thursday, according to the Dallas Morning News.

November 22, 2004

February 28, 2004
Even if Vinny Testaverde retires, he may still have leverage with the Jets to earn more money, according to Newsday.
