New Los Angeles Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh is just beginning his first OTAs as the head coach of the team, but it sounds like he is already making some pretty significant changes to the team’s practices.
According to a report from Bridget Condon of NFL Network, Jim Harbaugh has made some pretty significant changes to the way the Chargers practice, removing music and placing a heavy emphasis on conditioning, particularly at the end of practice.
“I’ve been to a lot of Chargesr practices before and I got my notebook ready for this season with Jim Harbaugh,” Condon said during an appearance on the NFL Network.

“There was no music,” she said. “In every other Chargers practice that I’ve been to before without Jim Harbaugh, they played a lot of music. So that’s an interesting note. [There was an] emphasis on conditioning. The last 10 minutes of practice we watched them do sled pulls. They were doing medicine ball carries. There is going to be a lot of conditioning that maybe we haven’t seen so strictly in the past.”
Obviously, these are some pretty significant changes for Harbaugh to come in and make. We’ll have to see how it affects the team.
