Rams second-year running back Isaiah Pead told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch that a slow start as a rookie kept him from maximizing his potential in 2012. He wasn't allowed to come to offseason workouts because his school didn't graduate students in time and fell behind when camp opened. "The crazy thing was, I wasn't even in school at the time," Pead said. "So I was just sitting around. I had a playbook, but I couldn't explain it to myself. I missed all but a week of (offseason practices) last year, so this year, I just feel like I’m that much farther along."
