In Los Angeles, running back J.K. Dobbins has made quite a splash in his first game with the Chargers after transferring from the Ravens. Dobbins left Baltimore and signed with the Chargers over the offseason, giving him a new opportunity under coach Jim Harbaugh, who previously coached at Michigan. This change carries a unique twist, as Dobbins faced off against Harbaugh’s Michigan team three times while at Ohio State.
In his debut with the Chargers, Dobbins showcased his remarkable talent by rushing for 135 yards and scoring a touchdown on just 10 carries. This impressive performance helped the Chargers secure a 22-10 victory against the Las Vegas Raiders, marking a successful start to the 2024 NFL season.
While Dobbins is now a member of the Chargers, his loyalty to Ohio State was evident during a recent appearance on “The Pat McAfee Show.” Dobbins playfully mentioned Harbaugh’s accomplishments at Michigan, including a national championship win last season. However, he added a layer of controversy by suggesting that the victories over Ohio State may not hold the same weight due to a current NCAA investigation into Michigan’s alleged sign-stealing practices.
In his own words, Dobbins said, “We’re not gonna get into that because I love him. That’s my coach right now. But, as an Ohio State person, I don’t think those games will count.” This statement adds to the ongoing narratives surrounding rivalries in college football, even as players transition to the professional league.
Despite his past injuries that limited his play in Baltimore, Dobbins appears to have fully recovered and is ready to make his mark with the Chargers. The excitement he brings to the team is palpable, and with performances like this, he may become a key player for the Chargers moving forward.
