Chargers GM called out the Ravens during Jim Harbaugh’s scare on Sunday

As Los Angeles Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh’s brief medical emergency unfolded on Sunday, a strange event occurred in Baltimore.

As seen in many viral clips, Ravens head coach John Harbaugh walked away to check on Jim in the middle of a press conference after his team’s win over the Washington Commanders.

As it turned out, it was Chargers general manager Joe Hortiz who called the Ravens about the situation just before kickoff in Denver.

“I think Joe Hortiz called John,” Jim Harbaugh said, according to Eric Smith of Chargers.com. “Let him know and John told my parents and stuff.”

This solves a small part of the intriguing mystery that Harbaugh briefly went to the blue medical tent, an interim coach was named and the team described his return as “questionable.”

Harbaugh quickly returned to the field for the big AFC West win. Afterwards, he joked about the whole thing in Harbaugh style.

Later Monday, Harbaugh provided an update after a visit with his cardiologist.
