  • James Proche: Reverts to practice squad

    Proche reverted to the Browns' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Proche was elevated from the practice squad for a second straight week due to Cedric Tillman (concussion) being sidelined. Proche served as the Browns' primary returner Sunday after Kadarius Toney was waived this past Tuesday, but the former ended up fumbling on a punt return early in the first quarter that led to a seven-yard touchdown pass from Patrick Mahomes to JuJu Smith-Schuster three plays later. Whether Proche is elevated for Week 16 against the Bengals will likely depend on whether Tillman is able to clear the league's five-step concussion protocols.

  • Browns' James Proche: Costly turnover in loss

    Proche returned three punts for 14 yards and lost a fumble in Sunday's 21-7 loss to Kansas City.

    After the Browns forced a three-and-out punt on Kansas City's first possession, Proche lost the handle on a return at the Browns' 21-yard line. Three plays later, Cleveland was in a 7-0 hole. Kadarius Toney muffed a punt in Week 14 and was cut from the roster last Tuesday, so there could be further changes to the return team coming. Proche as been an on-and-off again punt returner this season and has just three catches for 21 yards on offense.

  • Browns' James Proche: Gets another elevation Week 15

    The Browns elevated Proche from their practice squad to their active roster Saturday in advance of Sunday's contest against Kansas City, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

    Proche's elevation is his second in as many weeks due to Cedric Tillman being sidelined due to a concussion. Last Sunday versus Pittsburgh, Proche made the most of his two offensive snaps, recording two catches on two targets for 18 yards. He'll likely serve in a depth role at wide receiver and see limited work on offense again Sunday against the Chiefs.

  • James Proche: Reverts to practice squad

    Proche reverted to Cleveland's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Proche played just two snaps on offense during the Browns' 27-14 loss to the Steelers on Sunday, but he made the most of it as he caught both targets for 18 yards. He could be elevated for Week 15 against the Chiefs if Cedric Tillman (concussion) and Jamari Thrash (shoulder) are unable to play.

  • Browns' James Proche: Elevated for Week 14

    The Browns elevated Proche from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Proche signed with the Browns' practice squad Oct. 15 after being cut from the team's active roster three days earlier. Proche will give the Browns much-needed depth at wide receiver against the Steelers on Sunday due to Cedric Tillman (concussion) being ruled out and Jamari Thrash (shoulder) listed as questionable.

  • James Proche: Signed to Browns' practice squad

    Cleveland signed Proche to the practice squad Tuesday.

    Proche was released from the Browns' active roster Saturday, but he has opted to stick around on Cleveland's practice squad. He didn't see much playing time across his four regular-season outings this year, but the 2020 sixth-round pick could be elevated to the active roster to provide depth at wide receiver following Amari Cooper's trade to the Bills on Tuesday.

  • James Proche: Getting cut

    Cleveland released Proche on Saturday, Kelsey Russo of the Browns' official site reports.

    Proche had seen just 10 offensive snaps over four games through the first five weeks of the season, and now he's on his way out with the Browns. He'll have to look for another opportunity with a different team.

    Proche caught his lone target for three yards and returned two punts for 30 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to Las Vegas in Week 4.

  • Browns' James Proche: Contributes as returner

    Proche played one snap on offense and returned three punts for 25 yards in Sunday's 18-13 win over the Jaguars.

    After beginning the season on the practice squad, Proche was signed to the 53-man roster Saturday. In addition to the punt returns, he also lined up as a kickoff returner after Pierre Strong (hamstring) left the game early in the third quarter. Strong's injury plus David Bell's hip injury could lead to a bigger role for Proche.

  • Browns' James Proche: Signed to active roster

    The Browns signed Proche to the active roster Saturday, in preparation for Sunday's road matchup against the Jaguars, Brad Stainbrook of 247Sports.com reports.

    Proche began the regular season on Cleveland's practice squad, but he's now earned a spot on the 53-man roster. The 2020 sixth-round wide receiver appeared in 10 regular-season games with the Browns in 2023, in which span he contributed on special teams and failed to secure any of his five targets.

    Proche signed with the Browns' practice squad Wednesday.

    Proche failed to make the Browns' 53-man roster after finishing the preseason with seven catches (on seven targets) for 60 yards and one touchdown.

  • James Proche: Let go by Cleveland

    The Browns terminated Proche's contract Tuesday, Kelsey Russo of the team's official site reports.

    Proche, who had been in line for a return job, was cut, not waived. That means he's not subject to waivers and can sign with any team immediately, which potentially leaves a return to the Browns on the table.

  • Browns' James Proche: Re-signs with Cleveland

    The Browns have re-signed Proche.

    While Proche didn't catch any of his five targets in 10 games with Cleveland during the 2023 regular season, the 2020 sixth-rounder did contribute on special teams by returning 22 punts for 197 yards as well as one kickoff for 19 yards. Now that he's back in the fold, Proche will have a chance to retain his depth WR/special teams role with the Browns in 2024.

  • Browns' James Proche: Returns one punt in loss

    Proche returned one punt for two yards in Saturday's 45-14 wild-card playoff loss to Houston.

    Proche was a midseason acquisition and took over the punt-return duties after Cleveland traded Donovan Peoples-Jones to the Lions. Proche rarely played on offense outside of a Week 18 meaningless game. His primary body of work over four NFL seasons is that of returner, and he enters the offseason as an unrestricted free agent.
