James recorded 10 total tackles (seven solo) and a pass defensed in Sunday's 26-14 loss to the Cardinals.

James opened the season with a vintage performance, notching double-digit stops after having only done so twice over 16 regular-season contests in 2025. The safety was on the field for all 75 of the team's defensive snaps, and he appears to be on track to remain rather busy on the back end of the Chargers' defense again this year.
