James is a dynamic runner in space and also is a great player on special teams. Starting RB Knowshon Moreno dislocated his elbow on Sunday and is expected to miss a month of action . With Moreno out, the team signed Daniel Thomas to a contract yesterday and are looking for other options that are available.

James could be a nice option for the team to add onto the roster. With Moreno sitting on the sideline nursing his injury, James could see some action on the field.

The two sides still have not agreed to a deal, but James has worked out and they could be discussing a possible deal that could work. James would be a nice option to add onto the roster.
