QB Sam Bradford just finished session w/local media. Says he was so low mentally after 2nd injury, he wondered if he wanted to still play.
Says phone call w/former Oklahoma QB Josh Heupel (currently Sooners offensive coordinator) helped set him straight.
Bradford was asked a couple of times about his contract status; i.e. the possibility of accepting a pay cut or restructured contract.
Said he had no details to offer there. That his sole concern has been rehab _ and the Rams’ sole concern was the 2014 season _ up till now.
Bradford said he has no problem with Rams bringing in a QB via draft (or wherever) as competition.
Physically, Bradford said he’s coming along fine. Already running.

Rams QB Sam Bradford just spoke to media. Says he has not been approached yet by Rams about contract status.
Bradford doesn’t believe he came back too soon from previous injury but since injury happened earlier this time, he has more time.
Bradford plans to remain in St. Louis during offseason for rehab. There’s no definite timetable but acknowledged they’d be more deliberate.
Asked if he’d be willing to renegotiate contract, Bradford said there’s “lots that can can” but noted that’s why he has an agent.
Bradford said he still believes St. Louis is the best place for him, says he feels like he still has “a lot to prove.”
Bradford said he would embrace competition if and when team decided to invest in another quarterback via FA or the draft.
Bradford said there were moments after suffering ACL injury that he had doubts about coming back to football. Said part of him was “done.”
