Derwin James did his best Arn Anderson impression
Los Angeles Chargers safety Derwin James and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce are two of the best in the NFL at their respective positions. Naturally, they combined for one of the league’s best early-season highlights Thursday.
In the third quarter of Thursday night’s divisional matchup, Kelce caught a pass from Patrick Mahomes and streaked toward the end zone, but ran right into the waiting arms of James, who hit him with a brutal tackle.
The move reminded just about everyone on the internet of one thing — pro wrestling.
If if they didn’t think WWE, NFL Twitter acknowledged how incredible the tackle was. New England Patriots running back Damien Harris was one of those left with their jaws on the floor.
