With training camp just around the corner, Chargers safety Derwin James took to the sea to practice his explosiveness in coverage, using water and sand on a beach for resistance training.
James, who recently took the top spot for overall rating at the safety position in the upcoming release of the “Madden” franchise, can be expected to show the fruits of this scenically-set labor when the regular season starts in September.

As part of Los Angeles’ burgeoning secondary, the sixth-year safety seems primed for a sensational 2023 campaign after seeing playoff success slip through the Chargers’ fingers back in January. Clearly, the elimination loss has motivated James to continue working toward perfection, even during the last days he will have away from the team ahead of training camp.
With the offseason set to end in late July, James is sure to have his eyes set toward more sustained success for Los Angeles’ defensive unit, especially in big games where the lights will shine the brightest on the Bolts’ up-and-coming stars.
