OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- The Baltimore Ravens reached a one-year agreement with quarterback Robert Griffin III, providing an experienced backup to Joe Flacco.
The Ravens initially brought in Griffin to throw to receivers in a recent workout. That led to another meeting with team officials and eventually an agreement late Tuesday.
Baltimore had expressed interest in Griffin last summer.
Other than Flacco, the only quarterback on the roster had been Josh Woodrum, who spent all of last season on the practice squad and has never thrown a regular-season pass. Ryan Mallett, the Ravens' backup the last two seasons, is an unrestricted free agent.
