Keeping up with our NFL Training Camp Tour bringing you some of the best football conversations around the league, we were able to sit down with Derwin James of the LA Chargers as he prepared to become the highest paid player at his position in NFL history.
With several safeties around the league receiving big contracts of late, Derwin wasn't worried where he would fall in the pack and always remained confident that his on the field play would speak for itself when it came time for numbers. Putting his trust in agent David Mulugheta, the Chargers Safety stayed out of the negotiations and conversations between his team and representative knowing that he was in a good situation. Despite not signing a new deal before training Camp, Derwin showed up to support his team and partake in team activities, just didn't participate in practice.
Ignoring the noise that he is injury prone and hasn't done enough to prove his consistent skill level, Derwin says it comes with territories and doesn't allow others opinions to affect how he approaches the game or his relationship with his organization, knowing fully that when he is on the field and playing- he believes he is the best safety in the NFL. Fred related to that notion as he dealt with some of that affecting his career and contracts while he played too.
With full confidence in his quarterback Justin Herbert at the helm, Derwin believes the Chargers are not only the best team in the AFC West but a Super Bowl contender. "The more we get the ball to #10, we are going to win way more than we will lose". The Safety admits that it would be a letdown to get anywhere less than the big dance in February because he knows the talent on his team and what they are capable of this season,
In a surprising response to Ryan's match up questions, Derwin says that Hunter Renfro is a guy they watch and believe is one of the better on offense that they face. Channing asks how he has avoided the pitfalls of being a star first in college and now in the NFL and what are some of the choices he made to rise above those situations that often derail young careers. Of course, no conversation is complete without Channing being Channing as he shares his thoughts on guys who use poor excuses of becoming fathers unexpectedly, and as usual it's a must listen!
Growing up in Florida, Derwin talks about how he got his work ethic from his parents and watched his mom work out constantly as they were growing up so he adapted and did the same. As a father of his own little girl now, Derwin understands how this contract is not only life changing for him and his family but generational change too.

Fred's that dude that every time he talks you just wanna sit Indian style and listen to.
Like shyt
Damn Indian style
Boy take yo weird ass on 😂
I understand what you’re saying but criss cross applesauce is crazy I’m getting a chair 😂
Same DAMN COMMENTS EVERY DAMN VIDEO.. WE GET IT... Christ.. 🤡🤣✌️
I’ve watched all of Last Chance U and to hear Derwin say DJ Law was really like that on the field is crazy. He was one of those guys on the show that I rooted for.
DAMNNN I didn’t even piece together that was the same person when Derwin mentioned him. DJ Law was the best player on that season of Last Chance U, literally D1 talent. Just goes to show to make it to the league it involves a lot more than talent.
I knew exactly who was talking about when he said the name. I completely agree with you. He was definitely the best that season.
@@Bicy850 right it’s all about the support system as well
@@h2g__dagoat768 I came to the comments to see if anyone else made that connection too! DJ Law was cold asf on the field. Was rooting for him to make it to the league too
@@Grownbyjay as soon as he said his name it clicked
One of the best pods out right now. I love how Ryan looked out and got Fred and Chan on ESPN.
Oh word? When/what shows have they been on
@sheloveT0MMY First Take
🔥🔥🔥🔥
If you saw Ryan was like nah or don't say that Chan is too much for ESPN he's better when he's not on a leash
@@georgestewart8961 Channing say too much wild stuff to be hired by espn lmfao
"We weren't poor, we were middle-class, but....." shows the ultimate respect to his mother. Because too many people in the Black community say they have a great parent or parents, but diminish the hard work and sacrifices by stating a much lower socioeconomic class. Yes, prior generations struggled substantially, but when comparing the acquisition of basic needs to the desire of owning Jordans is a different reality. Salute to Derwin James because a Black man can live a middle-class life and still be among the toughest ever in his profession.
My thoughts exactly!!! Loved when he said that.
He's a really humble guy and he's honest wont ever hear him talk himself up unless its something he can say that's a known fact about his game.
I came for Derwin. I stay for Fred. Knowledge is power. Dropping gems each show. Dudes an inspiration. Truly
Amen
“I done been locked up, you know what raw feel like and you know what rubber feels like”…another Channing classic 😂
Got a new found respect for Derwin James. Congrats on the new contract and wish you a injury free career
Hold up as a theater type thing break a leg(good luck thing)
Must be a raider fan.
Hold your tongue man, dont go jinxing the man now, better knock on wood.
The reaction to Renfrow being mentioned... The number of ankles HR has broken is a higher number than most people even know how to count to... Keep on with the second-guessing, and keep on looking like all the DBs out there second-guessing where HR just went on that last route.
They’re a perfect combination, Fred the chill guy, RC the balance with Channing being unknowingly comedic. Good mesh good podcast 🙌
best part is when they randomly switch rolls. RC say something wild, Channing throw some wisdom out there, Fred start talking Sht lol
Channing might be a comedic genius because some of the off the wall stuff he says he somehow ties it back to a valid question that they just referred to lol always surprises me lol
Love a db finally giving hunter his flowers. He’s a dawg. So is Derwin. This season is going to be wild out west.
Y’all should have Hunter Renfrow on the podcast.
Freddy T went deep. When he gets the opportunity to talk and ask questions his Insight goes far. Glad your on the POD Freddy.
Finishing each other's quotes, laughing while shaking up and stomping their feet.... Yeah they brothers fr!! A genuine friendship, I love to see it, I love the realness
Why? Cause they’re black ??
Man I loved seeing how Derwin James lit up when he started talking about X’s and O’s and matchups. You can tell he’s a real student of the game. High I.Q player.
Looove Derwin. I remember watching him at FSU at he just jumped off the screen at ya and the way that boy was built his abs were jumping out of his shirt. The nfl is a truly truly terrifying league full of absolute freaks of nature. Gotta love it and this podcast IS the best out for sure, big fan and much love!! 😁
F bevy ch c
MN y. J m b. Y h. T
Fred trying to act like he didnt hear the boys clowning on his age.. he just kept talking 🤣😂
They said he played with night train lane😂😂😂
One of the best safeties in the league. Definitely one of the best to study.
24:44 He is speaking on DJ Law a running back from the first season of "last chance U" on Netflix, I recommend checking it out. I went to Copiah Lincoln community College which was the school that stopped East Mississippi from setting the longest win streak ever.
Straight dawg!! 🔥💪🏼
The pivot make their guests feel very welcomed. Continue to Bless these brothers
I love how, on each episode, these superstar football players who are tough as nails light up and actually smile once they're talking with the Pivot crew (Fred, Channing, RC). These are all great men, and it's a beautiful thing to see.
Derwin when asked top receivers he faces, 1) Tyreek Hill 2) Darren Waller 3) Hunter Renfrow. Ryan, ‘Hunter Freakin Renfrow are you serious?!’ Derwin, Renfrow is That DUDE!
Renfrow is a problem cuhz!!
James can play anywhere in the back seven. He has game! Keep it going Derwin
Not
@@noljayrockthegod920 You know it's true fan boy and he's definitely better than ANY db the chiefs got 🤡😂😂😂
Great show and straight talk all around...even the props for Hunter Renfrow. Da man didn't blink nor stray from his opinion, top stuff
Listening to the convo about injury makes me wish y’all would interview Bob Sanders. He was such a beast! I wish he was able to stay healthy. He would have been in the same conversation with Ed Reed and Troy Polamalu.
100% agree with you on that absolute game changer
I’m from Indianapolis and just was watching his highlights last week that episode would be crazy 🔥
Bob Sean T Ed and Troy were all dawgs mane these kids just don’t know
Kenny Easley is another great whose career was shortened because of injuries.
Best safety in the league and easily the most versatile defensive weapon. Dude can play 5 positions. Absolute beast on the field and deserves every penny.
The second coming of Ed Reed and Ronnie Lott
Stop.. He's good.. But we will see
@@tacotom3492 if he stays healthy and I mean 100% Healthy I believe he be those and more Shawn Taylor!!!
There a #31 is in Tennessee. 1st team all pro.
@@drepearson2885 He ain't Derwin tho 🤷🏽♂️
/pivot/ podcast provides powerful perspective put plainly = EVERYTHING
CHAN IS GOLD! 🤣
Pivot is bussin I AM ATHLETEs ass right now
The football fan in me was hyped to see this, then being from Haines City myself and seeing how hard he reps the city makes this my favorite episode. Hands down!!
Another Friday, Another Banging Pivot Episode. Enjoy it folks!!!
You act like you produced it 😭
@@Yuuuurppp Not really but I’m glad you can laugh at your own joke.
@@keljerel i’m NOT gay… unless?
If not really then don’t tell me to enjoy it YOU DONT TELL ME WHAT TO DO!
Another great pod, great insight detailing contracts. Y’all can’t miss, Clark=On the field analysis, Fred= flowers always pivoting relating to there beginning to there now, and Channing= combing comedy and behind the NFL perspectives. I watch ever week
I love it
Mr. Taylor, Mr. Clark, Mr. Crowder! Thank you all for your open minds! This Podcast is so insightful! In an era when people feel like “We’re” alone, you all teach us differently! Interview a “Regular Person,” that respects you all! I couldn’t have ever made it! I wasn’t taught, wasn’t pushed, nor supported! You ALL ARE THE BEST!!!
I JUST CAME HOME FROM HAVING SHOULDER SURGERY TODAY , ON PAIN MEDS, YET STILL COHERENT ENOUGH FOR THE PIVOT. MY FAVORITE SHOW! SHOUT OUT TO CC RC AND FT. FANTASTIC EPISODE 💯💯💯💯💯

My daughter went to FSU with him and she said he was very smart and just an all around good guy. She also confirms that Jalen never hung out . I like to see Florida guys make it since I'm from there myself. I'm rooting for you Dewin go get you a bowl win.
Fred is a true OG...stepped up his questions to 1000% on point! Pivot is #1 all day everyday! Let's get it!
Awesome show love the content you guys are killing it...I'm ready for the next episode!!!
I swear, David Mullugheta needs to be in the Hall for negotiating! Hell of a lawyer!
Beautiful content! Love this podcast and always looking forward to new episodes.
Glad to see Renfrow get recognition , that dude a top 3 slot for sure
These dudes piggy back off each other’s questions perfectly great chemistry
Thanks for bringing out the best in the guys, nice interview, good stuff, changes perspective and stereotypes
You guys at the pivot answered my question perfectly. This video completely addressed accountability in the streets in a smooth way when discussing Derwin’s Childhood friend and others you guys yourselves knew. How to control yourself. How to make the best with what you got. How to stay focused. I cannot stress how practical this podcast is. Seriously. These guys are DIFFERENCE MAKERS on AND off the field. Chargers Super Bowl contenders.
This was a dope conversation. I love the attention and respect you 3 get from these young players. Much respect to James definitely a bigger fan than I already was
Would love to see Ray Lewis on the Pivot, I think that would be the best episode.
I didn't even think about him. That definitely would be a great pivot
You guys are killing it!!! that I am athlete ain't got shit on you!! Keep it up fellas!!
Love that they're at 500k subs now, let's do our best to get them to 1 MIL!!!
RC is one of the best talkers ever.!!! I would pay to see him host events that he talks in.
Darius Slay has to be on this show before the season starts!
Ima FSU fan and this episode was so good. Im glad the world is finally getting introduced to Derwin James
As a die-hard FSU fan, this is an extremely exciting interview for me! I am so proud of Derwin. Thanks again Pivot crew for another great interview.
