Ridder, 25, has spent time with the Atlanta Falcons , Arizona Cardinals and Las Vegas Raiders in his career. He's 8-10 as a starter with 4,295 yards from scrimmage and 21 touchdowns against 14 interceptions and 18 fumbles.
Of the 24 other known players invited to tryout at minicamp is only one quarterback: Blake Stenstrom . The Highlands Ranch native spent two years at Colorado before transferring to Princeton.
