Internet reacts to 'fat' photo of Tony Romo at Cowboys training camp

It could be an unflattering angle. It could be Doritos.

Whatever the case, there's a photo of Tony Romo floating around the Internet purportedly taken Saturday at the Dallas Cowboys' first day of training camp in Oxnard, California.

And Romo is looking like more Romo than usual.

Of course, the Internet had it comments.

This seems like a case of a bad angle meeting poor timing. The jersey is floating, he's in a weird part of his stride. I don't know. I'm not a doctor.

For what it's worth, former Cowboys wide receiver Michael Irvin says Romo "looks fine."

All I know is that the camera lens can be unforgiving, and if this is a case of too many pasta bread bowls at the Romo house, that's what training camp is for: to run and sweat and vomit all those Cheesy Gordita Crunches out of the system.

Dan is on Twitter. Bad angles are the leading cause of bloating.

Is this just a bad pic or did Tony Romo go on the Shawn Kemp Offseason Training Program? pic.twitter.com/9MwqRQkc72

Just talked to @michaelirvin88 about the Tony Romo "fat" pic. Michael: "I just had lunch with him last Tuesday. Tony looks fine."
