Derwin James' case as the NFL's best Madden player was solid enough that he took on side challenges in The Checkdown's Madden 20 Tournament.

The Los Angeles Chargers defensive back routed the Kansas City Chiefs' Tyreek Hill 52-3 in the title game on Thursday—fulfilling a promise to a fan that he'd score 50 points.

"Everyone said Tyreek Hill was going to win," James said. "I was in an [Xbox live] party with a little kid on accident and I told him I'd get 50 for him. I'm pretty sure he's happy right now.
