Derwin James, Chargers safety, hasn't been able to practice on all the fields this offseason due to a shoulder injury.

Coach Brandon Staley announced today that James underwent labrum surgery following the season. The team will continue to hold him back from some drills in order to keep him healthy.

James sustained a broken shoulder in the first half of the season, but he continued to play. The Chargers don't seem too concerned about the injury.

James, the Chargers' 2018 first-round selection, is entering his fifth and final year on his rookie contract. James, when healthy, is one of the best safeties in the NFL. However, he missed the majority of the 2019 season as well as the entire 2020 season due to injuries.
