Later in the game, James went to the air and found Deebo Samuel down the sideline for a 23-0 lead:
On defense, James shut down Hill, an impressive feat considering the Chiefs wideout scored a combined 104 points in the first two rounds.
James took down teammate Keenan Allen 14-6 in Round 1 before beating Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeSean Jackson 50-27 in the semis.
Hill defeated teammate Tyrann Mathieu's Chiefs 62-32 and Cleveland Browns cornerback Denzel Ward's Houston Texans 42-21 to reach the final, winning those two games by a combined 51 points.
By virtue of his winning the title, a donation will be made in James' name to a COVID-19 charity.
