Chargers' Jim Harbaugh Provides Positive Health Update After Offseason Heart Procedure, Hip Replacement
- Los Angeles Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh underwent a heart procedure and hip replacement during the offseason in El Segundo, Calif., both of which were reported to have gone well.
- During a Week 6 game last season against the Denver Broncos, Harbaugh experienced a sudden episode of rapid heart rhythm, which required paramedics to provide treatment in the locker room.
- Despite missing about half the first quarter that game, Harbaugh returned to coach the rest and wore a heart monitor for two weeks afterward as part of ongoing heart care.
- Harbaugh, 61, expressed that only if his heart were to stop would he not be on the sideline, and he shared that doctors found no issues after his heart procedure.
- With Harbaugh’s health stabilized and a lessened limp from hip surgery, the Chargers aim to build on last season’s 11 wins, their most since 2018, and target playoff qualification.
