A man who robbed Los Angeles Chargers safety Derwin James at gunpoint was reportedly sentenced to nine years in state prison on Monday.
TMZ Sports reported the news, noting Kevin Mitchell was one of the two men who stole James' Rolex watch and gold chain at gunpoint in June 2018. James was leaving a restaurant in Hollywood, California, when it happened.
"I wouldn't wish that upon anybody," James said about the robbery in August 2018, per Eric D. Williams of ESPN.com. "It happened. It was just one of those things that you never expect to happen to you, but it happened, and I'm just happy to be out here playing football.
