Jim Harbaugh criticizes punter JK Scott after touchdown return

Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh expressed dissatisfaction with punter JK Scott following an 83-yard punt return touchdown by Jacob Cowing of the San Francisco 49ers during Thursday night's preseason action. Harbaugh noted that Scott's punt placement was inadequate, referencing that it was 'short and in the middle,' leading to the return. He addressed questions regarding Scott's tackle attempt, asserting that the punter should be prepared to make a play in that situation. While Scott currently serves as the only punter on the Chargers' roster, it is clear that Harbaugh expects improvements in that area as the preseason progresses.
