Getting up there in age (29) but still manages to fill the box score with regularity. Slight injury risk too.

Derwin James, LAC agree to extension
Los Angeles Chargers S Derwin James and the Chargers have reportedly agreed on a contract extension for three years and $75.6 million on Tuesday, May 26.
Sun May 24 16:46
GM wants Derwin James to finish career in L.A.
Los Angeles Chargers S Derwin James is entering the final year of a four-year, $76.5 million contract extension signed in 2022. He is a candidate for an extension, and general manager Joe Hortiz is hopeful James will finish his career in L.A. 'He's such a special, special leader and person,' Hortiz said. 'Like Justin (Herbert), the talent is real and it's there, but the leader and motivator and energy he gives to everybody within the organization, throughout the entire building, it's so unique. One of the best I've ever been around in terms of leadership, talent and character.'
