During a recent game against the Denver Broncos, Los Angeles Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh experienced an irregular heartbeat that prompted him to seek medical attention. Harbaugh, who has a history of dealing with atrial flutter, went into the medical tent and then to the locker room in the first quarter to get checked out. An EKG revealed that his heart had returned to a normal rhythm, allowing him to return to the sideline with his team already leading 3-0.
Harbaugh, who had previously undergone ablation procedures in 1999 and 2012 to address irregular heart rhythms, had not experienced another episode until this recent incident. Despite feeling off during pregame warmups, he tried to inject some humor by joking that he was now '2-0 in arrhythmias.'
