Chargers Lose Derwin James Jr. to Injured Reserve After Hamstring Rehab Setback
Jim Harbaugh said James had a setback in rehab, and the Chargers signed and promoted cornerbacks as injuries thinned the roster.
- The Los Angeles Chargers placed safety Derwin James on injured reserve Saturday following a hamstring injury setback that has sidelined the All-Pro defender since Week 3.
- Head coach Jim Harbaugh announced earlier this week that James suffered a setback in his recovery, forcing the roster move after the player missed action since Week 3.
- The Chargers now have nine players on injured reserve; the team signed cornerback Isas Waxter and promoted cornerback Kaiir Elam from the practice squad to address depth.
- James' earliest return is now Week 12 against the New England Patriots. Elijah Molden, Tony Jefferson, and Genesis Smith have played well in James' "Absence, despite the team."
- The 0-6 Chargers face the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday without James, left guard Kayode Awosika, and wide receiver Brenen Thompson, compounding roster challenges heading into Week 8.
