The Los Angeles Chargers finished an impressive season, securing 11 wins and a playoff appearance under head coach Jim Harbaugh. As he prepares for Year 2 in Los Angeles, Harbaugh faces personal health challenges that he will address during the offseason. During a recent press conference, he revealed plans to undergo an ablation procedure to correct his irregular heart rhythm.
On October 13, 2024, Harbaugh was seen entering the blue medical tent before kickoff, later explaining that he suffered from arrhythmia. He briefly left the field for evaluation but returned to the sidelines after missing part of the first quarter. In addition to the heart procedure, Harbaugh also disclosed he will need a hip replacement, as he dealt with a noticeable limp throughout the season.
