"Wanna drive my RV out and go to a trailer park": Jim Harbaugh reveals living in a motor home before taking Chargers job

Jim Harbaugh is set to make his return to the NFL in the upcoming season. After leading the Michigan Wolverines to the national title in 2023, he accepted the head coaching position with the Los Angeles Chargers. Despite signing a five-year, $80 million contract and having a net worth of $40 million (per Celebrity Net Worth), Harbaugh recently said he has been living in a motor home in Huntington Beach, California.

Sportscenter shared a clip of the Chargers head coach discussing his living conditions, saying:

"My wife, Sara, was - she thought it was a great idea. She didn't want me to tell anybody about it... This is my last hurrah, last weekend. My family just got into town last night so we're moving into our house. This has been a help to winning, to working, and pretty good for my mental health. The sea breeze."

The clip also included a flashback to Harbaugh's introductory press conference where he said:

"I told my wife this - should I tell them? Yes, yes. Okay, so I wanna drive my RV out. I wanna drive my RV out and go to a trailer park. You know, like down by the water."

Harbaugh will look to turn things around for the Chargers team which has struggled despite having a franchise quarterback in Justin Herbert. The team parted ways with several key veteran contributors in the offseason, and hold the fifth overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.
