Chargers cornerback J.C. Jackson was inactive for the Minnesota Vikings game despite being healthy. Coach Brandon Staley would not say whether Jackson would return to the lineup.

He made it back for the start of training camp and returned to the starting lineup. However, with the Chargers’ pass defense particularly porous to start the season, Jackson found himself without a role against Minnesota.Before leaving the game in the third quarter because of a hamstring injury, safety Derwin James Jr., for the second consecutive week, was called for an unnecessary roughness penalty because of a violent hit.
Late in the second quarter, James was cited after driving Minnesota’s Alexander Mattison out of bounds. The penalty converted what would have been fourth-and-goal at the Chargers’ six-yard line. “Come on, bro,” James said after the game. “I don’t know what to do at this point. I turned my shoulder. I turned my whole body. I just don’t know at this point.”James did appear to hit Mattison with his shoulder, though the hit landed high on the Vikings running back.
In a Week 2 loss at Tennessee, James was penalized for hitting Titans wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine in a similar manner. James also was fined $21,855 by the league.
