Bruce Gradkowski was claimed off waivers by the Rams last week and he's now getting down to business in St. Louis.

Talking to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, he admits Tampa wasn't the place for him given his fall down the depth chart and the team's number of quarterbacks. Click here to check out the article.

"I kind of wanted something to happen," he said. "I had two years
there, but I knew as an opportunity, that wasn't the spot for me right
now as a young guy. I was happy to get out of there."

He added: "Things didn't go as well as I'd planned, but it was a great learning
experience. I think it helped me tremendously, just getting a
feel for the game, how things work in the NFL, the speed of things,
getting used to being in the huddle with the guys. . . I know I can play
in this league, for sure."
