The Los Angeles Chargers made the playoffs last season and brought in an intriguing draft class this offseason that included North Carolina running back Omarion Hampton among other college football standouts.

The Chargers' new players got their opportunities to spend time with coach Jim Harbaugh and his staff this weekend at rookie minicamp, which wrapped up on Sunday in El Segundo, California.

The last day of minicamp also happened to coincide with perfect weather and one of the year's most cherished holidays, Mother's Day, which Harbaugh was able to celebrate in special fashion on Sunday as he received a surprise from his mother Jacqueline.

"Mother's Day surprise," the Chargers' X account wrote with a yellow heart emoji on Sunday.

The account shared a video of Jacqueline Harbaugh and her youngest son embracing on the field as Jim's father Jack watched from the sidelnes.

The Chargers coach later embraced his father, spreading the Mother's Day love as he shared a few precious moments with his parents on a hazy yet sunny California day.

"I love her pants," one fan said of the colorful bottoms Harbaugh's mother wore.

"Very nice James Joseph. Very nice," another fan of the Michigan Wolverines wrote with 'M' emojis included.

"Jim and Jack look amazing for 85. Heck, they'd look amazing for 65 tbh," another fan added about Harbaugh's parents (Jacqueline Harbaugh will turn 85 on June 3, 2025).

The Chargers' full 2025 schedule will be released on May 14 along with the rest of the NFL's teams' schedules.
