ESPN’s Ed Werder reports via Twitter that free agent quarterback JaMarcus Russell is sharing that he has an upcoming tryout with the Baltimore Ravens.

The former No. 1 overall draft pick worked out most recently for the Chicago Bears last Friday.

Russell, 27, hasn’t played an NFL down since being released by the Oakland Raiders.

After numerous off-the-field incidents involving substance use, he was let go by the Raiders in 2009 after a disappointing three seasons. He is now attempting to make a comeback tour and receive a second chance in the league.
