The Los Angeles Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh, offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel and defensive coordinator wore shirts reading “EVERYONE WATCHES WOMEN’S SPORTS” during the team’s Women in Sports Day event at training camp on Sunday.
The shirts were promoted by Nike and Togethxr, an organization founded by four female sports stars that advocates for nonbinary athletes. Jessica Robertson, Togethxr’s chief content officer, stated in 2021 that the group promotes a “post-binary” world to be inclusive.
The Chargers had previously held a similar event with Togethxr in 2025. The event drew immediate backlash from fans who criticized the gesture as performative and irrelevant to football. Social media users described the shirts as “performative” and questioned the team’s motivation, noting that few viewers watch women’s sports.
The Los Angeles Chargers did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
