The Los Angeles Chargers likely will be operating without safety Derwin James on Sunday in their Week 4 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs.
The NFL handed James a one-game suspension Monday night for repeatedly breaking player safety rules, last exhibited during the Chargers' 20–10 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. In the third quarter of that game at Acrisure Stadium, James made helmet-to-helmet contact with Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth while trying to bring him down.
