Is Joe Horn on Ravens radar?

Found July 22, 2009 on Baltimore Sun:
PLAYERS: Joe Horn,  Drew Bennett
TEAMS: Kansas City Chiefs,  Atlanta Falcons,  Tennessee Titans

Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome has spoken to the agent for wide receiver Joe Horn and told him that the team would contact him after Friday's tryouts. Horn, 37, is a four-time Pro Bowl receiver who averaged 87.4 catches from 2000 to 2004. He made 27 receptions for 243 yards and one touchdown in 12 games in 2007 before sitting out 2008. The Ravens have a connection with Horn. Quarterbacks coach Hue Jackson was the Atlanta Falcons offensive coordinator in 2007, when Horn was a receiver there. "The Ravens are one of the teams that would definitely interest Joe," said Ralph Vitolo, Horn's agent. The Ravens are conducting tryouts on Friday with four wide receivers, a group that includes Drew Bennett and D.J. Hackett.
