I’ve found new purpose in this life my love. I don’t understand God’s plan but, I promise this journey won’t be done in vain.

Another shared that they believe the wide receiver's mother is looking down over him now.

@jamesproche3 You are in our thoughts and prayers man. Sorry to hear this 😩 I lost my mom at 22 and it was the roughest time of my life. The good ones go way too fast. I’m sure she’s watching over you. 💜

Fortunately, the pre-season is not really in full swing, which makes it easier for Proche to take some time off and be with his family during this difficult time.


Where does Ravens star James Proche fall on the depth chart?

The Baltimore Ravens have not had an elite wide receiver corps for a while now. This is why so many players, ranging from Willie Snead to James Proche, were able to play big roles within that offense.

Going into the 2023 season, where does Proche rank? Proche likely comes in at WR5 or 6 on the new and improved depth chart.

Following the signing of Odell Beckham Jr and the acquisition of Zay Flowers in the draft, here's how things stack up:

  1. Odell Beckham Jr
  2. Rashod Bateman
  3. Zay Flowers
  4. Devin Duvernay
  5. James Proche
  6. Nelson Agholor
  7. Andy Isabella

Proche comes into the season with 25 career catches. He's recorded 278 yards and has not yet scored his first NFL touchdown.
