The Baltimore Ravens are going to be relying on multiple young wide receivers to step up after the trade of fellow wideout Marquise Brown to the Arizona Cardinals in exchange for draft capital that included a first-round pick. One of the pass catchers that could have a big role in 2022 is James Proche II, who has flashed plenty of potential.
After one of Baltimore’s mandatory minicamp practices, Baltimore wide receiver coach Tee Martin discussed what Proche needs to do in order to stay on the field more during the 2022 season. He talked about how he needs to continue to make the plays that come to him, relating the question back at what he did in certain spots last season.
“Just continue to make the plays that come to him. You look at last season; go back to the Denver game, he had some big grabs for us on third down; go back to Cincinnati, late in the season, [he had] some big grabs on third downs. And just when he’s out there on the field playing, just continue to make the plays and doing the things that we’re asking him to do within the offense.”
Proche has totaled 17 receptions for 216 yards over the course of his two years in the NFL. He hasn’t gotten many opportunities to shine, but has made plays when his number has been called. The former SMU star will to impress alongside his teammates such as Rashod Bateman, Devin Duvernay and Tylan Wallace, a group could shock some people this upcoming season.
