Derwin James Suffers Fractured Left Pinky in Raiders Loss

Chargers safety Derwin James revealed he fractured his left pinky during Sunday's loss against the Raiders. He intends to play through the injury while wearing a protective cast until it fully heals. While initial reports from ESPN suggested he would need the cast for the remainder of the season, that timeline was later walked back. Medical projections currently estimate a typical recovery window ranging between three to six weeks for this specific finger fracture.
