Chargers Return to San Diego for Practice, Drawing Mixed Reactions From Fans

SAN DIEGO COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, JUL 22 – The Chargers returned to San Diego for training camp practices at USD, drawing about 6,900 fans over two days and unveiling throwback uniforms in a symbolic homecoming.

  • On Tuesday, the Los Angeles Chargers returned to San Diego for the first time since 2017, holding their first practice at Torero Stadium where Jim Harbaugh began his head coaching career.
  • Coach Jim Harbaugh chose his former campus for its personal meaning, suggesting holding camp at USD, where he began his head coaching career in 2004, after the Chargers left San Diego in 2017 due to a failed stadium deal.
  • The Chargers practiced in pads for the first time this camp, with 3,300 military personnel and families on Tuesday and 3,600 season ticket holders Wednesday, and unveiled throwback navy jerseys.
  • While attendees showed enthusiasm in person, social media reactions remained hostile toward the team’s return.
  • As the team prepares for its preseason debut on July 31, the practices include a walk-through aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln, serving as preparation for the first game featuring Antonio Gates’ Hall of Fame induction.
