Overview
- The Chargers held their first full-pad practices in San Diego since 2017 at the University of San Diego’s 6,500-seat Torero Stadium.
- Tickets for the July 22 session were reserved for active-duty military and veterans, while July 23 was open only to season-ticket holders, filling roughly half the venue.
- Jim Harbaugh, who began his head-coaching career at USD, emphasized the sessions as fan appreciation rather than an olive branch to San Diego.
- Supporters in both current and vintage Chargers jerseys offered a mix of enthusiasm and lingering bitterness, recalling legends such as Rivers, Tomlinson and Seau.
- The practices underline the franchise’s effort to reconnect with its San Diego roots and rebuild goodwill after relocating to Los Angeles in 2017.
