Where is Gradkowski?

Is Bruce injured? He isn't playing in the Tampa Bay game. I'm wondering if he is injured or if he has been replaced as Garcia's backup.

Just curious.

He had a decent half last week, then struggled big time in the second half. McKown replaced him and started out, I believe, 15 of 15. I think Bruce is officially third string now. I still think he'll be solid as a backup some day but until he can consistently throw the long ball he'll remain a backup. Especially if the third string guy goes 15-15.

Chester Taylor got dropped back to number two on the depth chart as well. Only rushed for about 70 and one TD today. Gradkowski's old receiver buddy returned 5 kicks and caught two passes from Brees but looks like TB will take this one from NO.
