Ryan Leaf’s Predictions About Jim Harbaugh’s Utilization of the LA Pro Bowler
In a recent discussion with hosts Matt “Money” Smith and Lorenzo Neal of the Bleav In Chargers podcast, the notorious former quarterback from the San Diego period Ryan Leaf discussed the ways in which Jim Harbaugh, the new head coach, might and should employ safety Derwin James Jr. “You’ve got to want a guy who who is football savvy, who can get to the quarterback, can drop in coverage, can cover elite wide receivers, and Derwin James does all of that,” Leaf stated. “So I understand why [now-former Chargers head coach] Brandon Staley wanted to do what he did and I would expect to see something similar [with current coach Jim Harbaugh].” “At that point, I would anticipate seeing him close to or at the line of scrimmage, and then dropIt’s covered too,” Leaf continued. “He’s simply really large and robust. It’s incredible to watch that when he gets on the back end, he can run at that size.
Steve McMichael, a former star of the Chicago Bears and Hall of Fame selection, received a blood transfusion on Saturday after his longtime publicist revealed that he had been diagnosed with MRSA, a staph infection resistant to several medications. His family requested that they be prayed for. McMichael, 66, was suspected of having pneumonia when he was taken to the hospital on Thursday. Later on, an infection of the urinary system was identified in him, and drugs worked effectively for it. Before it was discovered that he had methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, he was anticipated to be discharged from the hospital in a few days.
After receiving an ALS diagnosis in 2021, McMichael has struggled with pneumonia and sepsis among other illnesses. Known to friends and teammates as “Mongo,” the veteran defensive tackle for the Chicago Bears played in 191 games over the course of 13 seasons. In 1980, he started his NFL career with the New England Patriots, and in 1994, he concluded it with the Green Bay Packers.
