The Los Angeles Chargers and safety Derwin James have come to terms on a four-year contract extension, ending his “hold-in” and making James the highest-paid safety in the game.
James had yet to practice with the team, whether during individual drills or in team exercises, until a new contract was reached. The safety and the team agreed on a massive four-year contract extension that includes $42 million guaranteed, and $29 million in the first year of the contract.
