Los Angeles Chargers safety Derwin James is leading in the league in a category few players want to top. James has been called for three unnecessary roughness penalties in the four games he has played. Before this year, he had been flagged for unnecessary roughness three times in five seasons.
FILE - Los Angeles Chargers safety Derwin James Jr. walks on the field before the start of the second half of an NFL football game against the Minnesota Vikings, Sept. 24, 2023, in Minneapolis. James has been called for three unnecessary roughness penalties in the four games he has played. Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins is sacked by Los Angeles Chargers safety Derwin James Jr. during the second half of an NFL football game, Sunday, Sept. 24, 2023, in Minneapolis.
In Week 2 at Tennessee, James’ unnecessary roughness penalty came on a third-down incompletion, extending a drive that resulted in a touchdown for the Titans. The following week at Minnesota, the foul occurred near the end of the first half and eventually led to a Vikings field goal. “I’m already going low, and then guys are ducking. I just have to get low, I guess,” he said. “If they’re going to call it like that, I have to be responsible and not hurt my team and get better from it. It’s that simple.”
Besides the three-TD game last season, Kelce had 10 receptions for 191 yards and two scores in a 2021 game against the Bolts.
