Tony Romo's first NFL pass was a 33-yard completion to Sam Hurd in a home game against the Houston Texans. His only other pass of the game was a two-yard touchdown pass, his first in the NFL, to Terrell Owens.
With the Cowboys trailing 21-20 on fourth-and-one with 1:19 left in the game, the Cowboys attempted a 19-yard field goal. Tony Romo, the holder for the kick, fumbled the snap. He recovered the ball and attempted to run it in, but was tackled short of the first down marker, and turned the ball over on the Seattle 2-yard line.

On December 26, 2021, the Dallas Cowboys destroyed the division rival Washington Football Team 14-56, and Dak Prescott became the first quarterback in NFL history to throw a touchdown pass to a running back (Ezekiel Elliott), tight end (Dalton Schultz), wide receiver (Amari Cooper) and offensive lineman (Terence Steele) in the same regular-season game.
Although he missed his first-ever NFL kick (a PAT against the Giants in week 1 of the 2023 season) Brandon Aubrey would go on to become the first player in Cowboys history to make his first seven field goal attempts after nailing all five attempts against the Jets in week 2, becoming just the fifth player in the Super Bowl era to nail seven in their first two NFL games. The other five were Harrison Butler, Jeff Reed, Richie Cunningham, and Eddie Murray.
