The Ravens routinely work out free agents even if there is no definitive interest or positional need, but it certainly isnt a regular occurrence for a player once considered their franchise quarterback to return to the teams facility and audition for a job. That will happen Thursday as Kyle Boller, a former first-round pick who was a lighting rod for fan discontent during his five-seasons as a Ravens quarterback, will be one of three veteran free agent passers to work out for team officials in Owings Mills. Kyle Boller, the Ravens' former first-round pick and starting quarterback, is among a group of players taking part in a workout at The Castle Thursday. Though the Ravens feel confident with Tyrod Taylor, who played only a few snaps his rookie year, backing up Joe Flacco, they do plan on inviting at least one veteran quarterback to training camp. Dennis Dixon, a backup to Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger for three seasonsand Curtis Painter, who started eight games for the Peyton Manning-less Indianapolis Colts in 2012, are also scheduled to be part of the workout.
