The Ravens are looking to add a veteran wide receiver to their young corps and reportedly considered bringing in another free agent, Antonio Brown, for a tryout.

The Dallas Cowboys selected Bryant with the No. 24 overall pick in the 2010 NFL Draft, and he spent eight seasons there. He caught 531 passes for 7,459 yards and 73 touchdowns in 113 games with the Cowboys, who released him in April 2018.

In Dallas, he made three Pro Bowls and had three 1,000-yard seasons.

Bryant, 31, signed with the New Orleans Saints on Nov. 8, 2018, but landed on injured reserve with a torn right Achilles tendon two days later.
