  • Excellent after two-year absence

    James finished the 2021 season with 118 tackles (75 solo), five passes defended, three fumbles forced, two sacks and two interceptions across 15 games.

    Analysis: It took essentially two years, but the dynamic safety was finally able to make his presence felt in an emerging Chargers secondary after multiple injuries limited James to just five games played since the end of the 2018 season. The 25-year-old hardly lost a beat in his return as James finished second on the team in tackles and tied for first in interceptions. The star safety enters the offseason on the final year of his rookie contract and figures to receive a lucrative extension in the near…read more

  • Good to go Sunday

    James (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Broncos, Gilbert Manzano of The Orange County Register reports.

    Analysis: James was active for last week's loss to Houston but didn't see the field, and he was able to get clear of the injury report for Week 17. The 25-year-old has 103 tackles (67 solo), two sacks, two interceptions and two forced fumbles in 13 games this season.

  • Possibly available Week 17

    Coach Brandon Staley said Wednesday he's "hopeful" James (hamstring) can play against Denver on Sunday, Jeff Miller of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Analysis: James was active for Sunday's contest against the Texans, but as expected, he didn't see the field after not going through pregame warmups. James has now missed two of the last three games due to the injury and only played 26 defensive snaps during the only contest he did play in during that stretch. His practice status throughout the week will probably provide a better indication as to whether or not the star safety will play in Week 17.

  • Unlikely to play in Week 16

    James (hamstring) is active for Sunday's contest against the Texans, but he wasn't participating during pregame warmups, Jeff Miller of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Analysis: James' nonparticipation during warmups suggests the Chargers would prefer not to play him, but they are keeping him active because they have so many players sidelined due to COVID-19 protocols. If James is indeed only an emergency option, Alohi Gilman and Ben DeLuca would likely both be candidates for increased snaps.

  • Will play Sunday

    James (hamstring) is active for Sunday against the Texans, Jeff Miller of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Analysis: James was considered a game-time decision Sunday, but he and the team feel he is capable of suiting up after testing his hamstring during his pregame workout. James missed the Chargers' week 14 contest against the Giants with the injury, then aggravated it Week 15 against the Chiefs. His return will certainly be a boost to the Chargers' secondary when they match up with the Texans on Sunday.

  • Treated as game-time call

    James (hamstring), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Texans, is being viewed as a game-time decision, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Rapoport relays that James has made good progress after aggravating the hamstring injury in the Chargers' Week 15 loss to the Chiefs, but the team won't have a good feel for the safety's availability until evaluating him in a pregame workout. The fourth-year player has suited up in 13 of the Chargers' 14 games to date, logging 103 tackles (67 solo), five pass breakups, three forced fumbles, two sacks and two interceptions.

  • Questionable for Sunday

    James (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Texans.

    Analysis: James avoided aggravating his hamstring injury last week against the Chiefs and may be able to play Sunday versus the Texans. The 25-year-old could end up a game-time decision given he sat out practice Wednesday and Thursday.

  • Hamstring hasn't worsened

    Coach Brandon Staley said "there was no damage" done to James' hamstring in Thursday's loss to the Chiefs, and he's optimistic the 10 days until Los Angeles' next game will give James a chance to heal up, Gilbert Manzano of the Orange County Register reports.

    Analysis: James came into the game battling a hamstring injury, and while it eventually forced him off the field against the Chiefs, he apparently hasn't suffered any setbacks. The star safety seems unlikely to sit out any games due to the injury considering he tried to play through it Thursday, but it remains to be seen whether it will be completely healed by the time the Chargers head to Houston in Week 16.

  • Bothered by hamstring

    James (hamstring) is questionable to return to Thursday's game against the Chiefs.

    Analysis: James missed the Chargers' Week 14 matchup against the Giants with a hamstring issue but was able to return for Thursday's game after logging a limited practice during the week. However, he has missed entire drives during the game, according to Daniel Popper of The Athletic, and clearly isn't playing at 100 percent. Prior to the injury, James recorded three tackles.

  • Good to go Thursday

    James (hamstring) is active for Thursday's game against the Chiefs, Gilbert Manzano of The Orange County Register reports.

    Analysis: James was considered questionable for Thursday's contest and will take the field after sitting out one game due to the hamstring issue. It's a big boost for the Chargers secondary while going up against Patrick Mahomes.

  • Listed as questionable

    James (hamstring) is questionable for Thursday's game against Kansas City.

    Analysis: Although James was held out of practice Monday, he returned to the field in a limited capacity Tuesday. He'll have a chance to suit up Thursday following his one-game absence due to a hamstring injury, while Alohi Gilman (quadriceps) and Trey Marshall (ankle) could see additional playing time if James remains out.

  • Limited Tuesday

    James (hamstring) was limited at Tuesday's walkthrough practice.

    Analysis: James is coming off a one-game absence in which he was a late add to the injury report. He was a non-participant at Monday's walk-through, so he does appear to be trending in the right direction. Trey Marshall would likely draw another start if James is ultimately unable to return.

  • Not available Sunday

    James (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Giants.

    Analysis: James was added to the injury report Friday with a hamstring issue, and as is normally the case with late additions, he won't be available in Week 14. Trey Marshall is expected to draw his first start of the season, as backup strong safety Alohi Gilman (quadriceps) is also inactive.

  • Listed as questionable

    James (hamstring) was added to the injury report and is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Giants.

    Analysis: James, who was forced to miss all of last season due to a torn meniscus, has played in all 12 games and is the Chargers' team leader in tackles with 100 this season. James' potential absence this week would be significant given the impact he provides as the central figure in head coach Brandon Staley's defense. Trey Marshall would likely fill in at strong safety if James is unavailable for Sunday's game against a Giants offense led by veteran backup quarterback Mike Glennon.

  • Racks up seven tackles

    James posted seven tackles (three solo) and half a sack in Sunday's 41-22 win over the Bengals.

    Analysis: James has been a consistent force for the Chargers' defense this year, as he's recorded at least five tackles in each of the first 12 games of the season. The 2018 first-rounder now has 100 tackles (65 solo), two sacks, two interceptions, five pass defenses and three forced fumbles in 2021.

  • Interception in loss

    James recorded seven tackles (five solo), one interception and one pass breakup during Sunday's 28-13 loss to the Broncos.

    Analysis: James totaled the second most tackles behind Kyzir White and managed to corral the Chargers' only interception on the afternoon. The fourth-year safety continues to rank in the top 10 for solo tackles and has five or more tackles in every game this season. The safety has become one of the top fantasy options in IDP formats, continuing to put up solid numbers.

  • Makes six stops in narrow win

    James had six tackles (two solo) and one pass breakup during Sunday's 41-37 win over the Steelers.

    Analysis: James now has 86 tackles through 10 games this season, and he has yet to record a single game with fewer than five stops. The fourth-year safety's consistency combined with his big-play ability make him one of the top fantasy options at the position in IDP formats, if not the top safety.

  • Double-digit tackles

    James tallied 12 tackles (nine solo) during Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Vikings.

    Analysis: James registered his third double-digit tackle game Sunday and defended one pass attempt. The safety leads the team in snaps and tackles per game, making him a top option in fantasy leagues. James ranks first among all safeties in tackles and is tied for fourth with three forced fumbles through nine games. Although the 25-year-old safety has essentially missed the past two seasons with injuries, his strong defensive performance makes him irreplaceable.

  • Game-high 13 tackles in loss

    James tallied 13 tackles (nine solo) and forced a fumble during Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Patriots.

    Analysis: James registered his second double-digit tackle outing of the season Sunday, and he has also forced a fumble in three straight games. After missing 27 games due to injury over the past two seasons, the 25-year-old has reestablished himself as a premier safety in the NFL and will likely remain a top IDP option against the Eagles in Week 9.

  • Ties for team lead in tackles

    James tallied eight tackles (seven solo) and forced a fumble in Sunday's 34-6 loss to the Ravens.

    Analysis: James has been a revelation this season, leading the team in tackles while either forcing a fumble or registering a pick in three straight games. That effort hasn't exactly turned around what was a porous Chargers run defense last season, but it's still encouraging to see the 25-year-old reestablish himself as a premier safety after missing 27 games due to injury over the past two seasons.

  • Outrageous tackling day

    James notched 17 tackles (nine solo), one sack and one forced fumble during Sunday's win over the Browns.

    Analysis: James was hugely involved as a run stopper versus Cleveland, marking his first day of the season with double-digit tackles. The star safety likely won't repeat such tackling numbers again, but his ability to manufacture big plays still leaves him as a high-end IDP asset.

  • Gets INT in win

    James recorded six tackles (three solo) and an interception in Monday's 28-14 win over the Raiders.

    Analysis: Monday marked the first interception for James since 2018. The dynamic safety has been an absolute boon for a Chargers defense that has quietly cemented itself as one on the rise. While IDP managers would like to see James register more tackles, the safety's play-making ability is unrivaled.

  • Returns to Sunday's contest

    James (shoulder) returned to Sunday's contest, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: James was sent to the locker room in the first half, but he has returned to action. The third-year pro has totaled 15 total tackles through the first two games of the season.

  • Questionable to return

    James (shoulder) is questionable to return Sunday against the Chiefs.

    Analysis: The third-year pro suffered the injury in the second quarter, and it remains to be seen if he'll be able to return to action. Expect Alohi Gilman and Trey Marshall to see increased snaps as a result while James is sidelined.

  • All over field in loss

    James compiled seven tackles (five solo), a tackle for a loss and a half sack in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Through two games, James has compiled 15 tackles and a half sack as the "joker" role in Brandon Staley's defense. The talented safety has more importantly stayed healthy after missing the past 27 games due to foot and knee injuries. He should be a relevant IDP option most weeks given his run-stuffing capabilities.

  • Returns to full participation

    James (toe) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: James was simply getting a maintenance day Wednesday after playing every single defensive snap in the Chargers' Week 1 win over Washington. The star safety should be all systems go in Week 2 against Dallas, where he'll have to be on his game to slow down Dak Prescott and the high-powered Cowboys passing attack.

  • Sidelined by toe issue

    James did not practice Wednesday due to a toe injury, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: James wasn't slowed by the injury in Week 1, when he logged seven tackles and broke up a pass. Though electrifying when on the field, James has dealt with injuries across each of the last two seasons. Given his history of being sidelined, it will be worth monitoring James' practice activity leading up a Week 2 matchup against Dallas on Sunday.

  • Looks good as ever

    James posted seven tackles (six solo) and a pass breakup in Sunday's 20-16 win over Washington.

    Analysis: Injuries derailed James' last two seasons, but he's back at full strength. The 2018 first-round pick was active in coverage and flashed his run-stuffing ability in the opener. Now that he's past his injuries, James is a high-end IDP option.

  • Fully healthy

    James (knee) was a full participant in OTAs this past week, Nick Shook of NFL.com reports.

    Analysis: James missed the entire 2020 season after tearing his meniscus during training camp, the second consecutive time his season was cut short due to a knee injury. The 24-year-old will look to put that history behind him as James rejoins a Chargers defense that was near the bottom in terms of turnovers forced last season.

  • Fifth-year option exercised

    James (knee) has had his fifth-year option exercised by the Chargers, Albert Breer of TheMMQB.com reports.

    Analysis: James is coming off back-to-back season-ending knee injuries, but he'll now at least have the benefit of being fully healthy for the eventual start of offseason workouts, and knowing that he'll remain with the Chargers through 2022. As one of the best safeties in the league when healthy, James stands to be a high-end IDP asset for the 2021 campaign as long as he can stay on the field.

  • Recovering from knee injury

    James is expected to be fully recovered from his August knee surgery in about one month, Jeff Miller of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Analysis: James missed the entirety of the 2020 season due to a knee injury he suffered during training camp in August. The 24-year-old is optimistic he'll be cleared for full physical activity in approximately one month, a development that would bode well with respect to his availability for OTAs beginning this spring.

  • Goes to COVID-19 list

    James (knee) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: James is already on season-ending injured reserve, so this transaction signals that he either tested positive for the virus or came into close contact with an infected person. He'll be required to clear the league's COVID-19 protocols before returning to the Chargers' facilities.

  • Heads to injured reserve

    The Chargers placed James (knee) on injured reserve Wednesday.

    Analysis: For the second year in a row, James has incurred a season-ending injury, this time a meniscus issue in his right knee that will require surgery. In his place, the Chargers will entrust Rayshawn Jenkins with starting duties at strong safety.

  • Out for season

    James (knee) is set to undergo season-ending surgery on his knee and is expected to be sidelined 6-to-8 months, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: James left Sunday's practice early, and the reason was initially described as a hamstring strain. However, it turns out he suffered a meniscus injury in his right knee that will require surgery. It's a significant blow for the Chargers, and it means the 24-year old will go a two-year stretch with only five games played. When healthy, he's considered one of the best safeties in the league, but he'll now have to set his sights on recovering for 2021.

  • Will miss significant time

    James (knee) is expected to miss significant time due to a meniscus injury in his right knee, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: James exited Sunday's practice early due to what was initially reported as a hamstring strain but which has now been disclosed to be a meniscus issue. Losing the star safety for a significant number of games would be a huge blow for the Chargers defense, though it at least sounds like the door is open for him to retake the field at some point in 2020. Pending further medical evaluation, Rapoport reports that the options for James are a meniscus trim (four-week recovery timetable) or a full…read more

  • Strains hamstring

    James suffered a hamstring strain Sunday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Schefter says it's too early to tell if the injury is significant, but it sounds like James has some level of concern, as he threw his gloves in frustration before entering the medical tent, per Gilbert Manzano of The Orange County Register. He'll have exactly two weeks to return to health before the Chargers face the Bengals in Week 1 (Sept. 13).

  • Exits with injury

    James left Sunday's practice with an injury, walking off the field to the trainer's tent, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: James missed the first 11 games of last season while recovering from a stress fracture of the fifth metatarsal of his right foot, but he's otherwise been everything the Chargers hoped for when they made him the 17th overall pick of the 2018 draft. Any absence in the regular season would be a huge blow to the team's defense, potentially leaving Nasir Adderley and Rayshawn Jenkins as the starting duo at safety. Of course, this may just be a minor injury, considering James was able to walk of the…read more

  • Injury ruins 2019 campaign

    James finished the 2019 season with 34 tackles (23 solo) and a pass defended across five games.

    Analysis: Continuing the pattern of annual critical Chargers early-season injuries, James missed the majority of the 2019 campaign after suffering a stress fracture in his foot during the preseason. The second-year safety looked uneasy in his first few games back, but by the end of the campaign was routinely causing problems in and around the line of scrimmage. When healthy, James is one of the best safeties in the NFL, and should be a Pro Bowl candidate once again in 2020.

  • Persistent menace in loss

    James posted eight tackles (five solo) in the 24-17 loss Sunday to the Raiders.

    Analysis: It's fair to wonder how different the Chargers defense could have been if James were healthy all season, as the safety has been a force in the four games since returning from a stress fracture in his foot. He'll be arguably one of the top IDP options at his position come 2020, so long as he's able to maintain his health in a meaningless Week 17 contest against the Chiefs.

  • Leads team in tackles

    James tallied nine tackles (six solo) in the 39-10 loss Sunday to the Vikings.

    Analysis: In the three games since coming off injured reserve, James immediately has been thrust into the starting role, playing all but four snaps. Sunday's outing was by far the most effective for the second-year safety, although he's yet to pick up any sort of turnover or sack. Still, the 2018 Defensive Rookie of the Year runner-up is once again reasserting his worth at safety, allowing for the Chargers to use their myriad of secondary options in different ways.

  • Comes off injured reserve

    James (foot) was activated off injured reserve Saturday.

    Analysis: The Chargers activated both James and Adrian Phillips (forearm) on Saturday, adding a significant layer of depth to an injured-riddled secondary. The second-year safety missed the first 12 games of the season after suffering a stress fracture in his right foot, which required surgery.

  • Designated for return

    James (foot) has been designated for return from injured reserve, Gilbert Manzano of The Orange County Register reports.

    Analysis: Coming off a Week 12 bye, the Chargers were authorized to hold an informal practice Monday, which James may have attended. In any case, he's getting close to the end of the road in his recovery from a stress fracture of the fifth metatarsal in his right foot. If everything goes as planned this week, there's a chance James is elevated to the 53-man roster for Sunday's game at Denver.

  • Could return after bye week

    James (foot) could suit up against the Broncos in Week 13, Jeremy Bergman of NFL.com reports.
