LaMichael James won’t be doing the “discount double check” anytime soon.

The 49ers running back tweeted a message of frustration, then deleted it, regarding his small role in the offense.

CSNBayArea.com got a picture of the tweet in question before it was erased, in which James wrote: “Some things I just don’t understand at all I don’t work at State Farm I’m not trying to be insurance.”

James was inactive the first three games this year, and had three carries for no (0) yards against the Rams. The former second-round pick filled in for an injured Kendall Hunter last year, but hasn’t made much of an impact, or made any funny commercials with Bears fans on a plane.
