Board agreed to a contract with the Ravens on Tuesday, Ryan Mink of the team's official site reports.

Patriots' Chris Board: Signs with New England
Board signed a a two-year deal with the Patriots on Friday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Board spent last season with the Lions, where he appeared in all 17 games and registered 21 tackles (17 solo) while playing primarily on special teams. The 27-year-old should be expected to have a similar role on his new team, and while Board may not contribute much on defense, he can still provide a lot of value to New England's special-teams unit.

Lions' Chris Board: Getting first-team reps
Board and Alex Anzalone took the majority of first-team reps at linebacker this spring, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.
This isn't a surprise in the sense that Board's one-year, $2 million deal tops that of Jarrad Davis' one-year, $1.2 million pact. With Anzalone at middle linebacker and Julian Okwara on the strong side, Board presumably fits in at weakside linebacker in Detroit's new 4-3 base defense. If so, he probably will have less responsibility as a pass rusher than Okwara, who racked up five sacks on fewer than 400 defensive snaps last year.
