As reported by Baltimore Sun staffer Jamison Hensley, the Ravens announced that quarterback Kyle Boller will have arthroscopic surgery today to clean up damaged tissue in his left (non-throwing) shoulder.
Boller, who was named the Ravens starter last month, is not expected to miss any mini-camps. ...
Also in Baltimore. ... According to reports published by a handful of Philadelphia-area newspapers, the Eagles agreed to a deal in principle to acquire Terrell Owens Thursday, only to have the 49ers turn the tables by sealing a deal with the Ravens instead.
The reports, which appeared on the phillyburbs.com web site, claim Owens and agent David Joseph were furious. Joseph told league officials Thursday night he plans to file a grievance against the 49ers, and union chief Gene Upshaw is reportedly already involved in the process.
Two unnamed league insiders familiar with the negotiations -- speaking on the condition of anonymity, told reporters Thursday night that the Eagles actually finalized a trade with the 49ers and hammered out a long-term, multi-million dollar contract with Owens.
The deal would have sent Owens to Philadelphia for a fifth-round pick and a player, possibly receiver James Thrash, according to the report.
"Terrell was ecstatic," an NFL agent familiar with the details of the negotiations, is quoted as saying. "Philly is where he wanted to go all along. He was under the impression he was an Eagle. It was a done deal."
But before the paperwork was signed, 49ers general manager Terry Donahue quietly accepted the Ravens offer of a second-round pick in this years draft and filed trade papers without informing Joseph or Eagles negotiator Joe Banner, or giving them a chance to match the offer.
The Eagles apparently didnt learn the 49ers had shipped Owens to the Ravens until a team employee saw an ESPN report on Thursday afternoon.
