Former Cowboys DE Spears agrees to 2-year deal with Ravens
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Former Dallas Cowboys defensive end Marcus Spears has agreed to a two-year contract with the Baltimore Ravens.
The Ravens announced the move late Friday night. Spears is expected to take a physical and sign the deal within the next few days.
Although the Super Bowl champions have lost several key players during free agency, they've enhanced their defensive line by signing Chris Canty and Spears, who has 89 starts over his NFL career.

Spears was drafted in the first round of the 2005 draft by Dallas.
