Derwin James ejected for vicious hit on Ashton Dulin
Derwin James was ejected from the Week 16 “Monday Night Football” game between his Los Angeles Chargers and the Indianapolis Colts for a vicious hit he delivered on Ashton Dulin.
The Colts were down 7-0 in the second quarter and had a 2nd-and-2 at the Chargers 46. Nick Foles faked an inside handoff and then threw to Dulin, who ran a drag route behind the line.
James was waiting when the ball was thrown and absolutely lit up Dulin.
