James R. Graner (February 21, 1919 January 15, 1976) was the weeknight sports anchor for Cleveland NBC affiliate KYW-TV (later WKYC) beginning in 1957. He also served as color commentator for the Cleveland Browns Radio Network, most notably alongside Cleveland sportscaster Gib Shanley.

Graner had operated in both capacities for nearly twenty years when brain cancer took his life in 1976.
