James started their first three games of the season and is tied for the team lead in tackles with 21. The veteran also has two quarterback pressures and one pass breakup. They signed him to a three-year, $75.6 million contract extension before the season, making him the highest-paid safety in the NFL for the second time in his career.
He is in his eighth year with the Chargers and is coming off his fifth All-Pro season and fifth Pro Bowl appearance. He has started all 101 of his appearances, recording 705
tackles, 19.0 tackles for loss, 40 tackles for loss, 12 interceptions, and six forced fumbles.
The Chargers have had a brutal start to the season, going 0-3 after entering the year looking to win the division and make a run in the playoffs. Their game against the Seattle Seahawks is set to start at 4:25 p.m. ET.
