is there a query or a method to identify reports that use a specific object?

i need to add a selection critera  in  ALL reports that use the Contact Object. 
is there a way for me to identify these reports with a query ? 

I would like to avoid having  to OPEN over  3000 reports and see if the contact entity is available in it... 
thank you

I dnt think so ..  Reports metadata will be store based on the Report folder 


https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.object_reference.meta/object_reference/sforce_api_objects_report.htm 
SELECT DeveloperName,Format,Id,Name FROM Report WHERE Name LIKE '%Sales%'

BUT YOU CAN DO ONE SIMPLE DATA EXCERSIZE 

Download all the reports into local system using eclipse and use search in all files
