Who Should I Start? Tyron Johnson or James Proche

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Tyron Johnson turned six targets into five catches for 90 yards during Saturday's preseason finale against the Las Vegas Raiders. The 27-year-old delivered a solid outing, but it might have been too little, too late. Constructing an NFL roster is a numbers game and Johnson isn't expected to make the team. With that said, Saturday's performance will certainly make him a practice squad candidate and could even earn him a depth spot on another team's 53-man roster.

The Cleveland Browns re-signed wide receiver/kick returner James Proche II to an undisclosed deal on Tuesday. Proche, a former sixth-round selection by the Baltimore Ravens in 2020 out of SMU, didn't catch any of his five targets in 10 regular-season games (one start) in 2023 in his first year with the Browns. He did, however, return 22 points for 197 yards and one kickoff for a gain of 19 yards last year. The 27-year-old has a grand total of 25 career receptions on 45 targets for 278 yards and no touchdowns in 53 games (one start) in his four NFL seasons, so he's not going to be a factor suddenly on offense for Cleveland in 2024. Proche will, however, give the Browns another option to return kicks on special teams yet again.
