COSTA MESA, Calif. -- Los Angeles Chargers safety Derwin James talked to reporters on Thursday for the first time since suffering a stress fracture in his right foot that required surgery during training camp last month.
James, who's in a walking boot, said the plan remains for him to return this season once he's healthy.
"For sure, that's the goal," James said. "I'm just going to continue to work hard every day."
James suffered a Jones stress fracture of the fifth metatarsal of his right foot during a joint practice against the New Orleans Saints on Aug.
