Video: Jim Harbaugh Throws Pass at Chargers Practice After Rehashing Days as NFL QB

Los Angeles Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh turned back the clock on Monday during training camp.

Harbaugh, who spent 14 years as a quarterback in the NFL, got some throws in during practice as he completed a pass to tight end Zach Heins.

The 60-year-old is far removed from his playing days, as he took his last NFL snap as a member of the Chargers during the 2000 season. He also played for the Baltimore Ravens, Chicago Bears, and Indianapolis Colts.

Harbaugh previously reminisced about his time on the field with Los Angeles receiver Joshua Palmer during Sunday's practice, as he discussed his playing style compared to Tom Brady and Lamar Jackson.

"I couldn't throw as good as Lamar or Tom and couldn't run as good as Lamar," Harbaugh said. "But I was a pretty mobile quarterback."

Harbaugh was hired by the Chargers on Jan. 24 following a successful stint at Michigan, his alma mater. The Wolverines finished with a perfect 15-0 record in 2023, defeating Washington in the College Football Playoff National Championship.

He'll look to bring sustained success to Los Angeles, as the team has missed the playoffs in four of the past five seasons. After the Chargers finished with the third-best passing attack in the NFL during their 2022 season, they fell to the No. 13 spot in 2023 as Justin Herbert missed time due to a fractured finger.

Although Herbert was diagnosed with an injury to the plantar fascia in his right foot on Thursday, he's still expected to be ready for the start of the regular season. While Harbaugh will be patrolling the sidelines, Los Angeles will look to bounce back in 2024 with a healthy quarterback under center.
