EL SEGUNDO, Calif.—Los Angeles Chargers Coach Jim Harbaugh on Monday said he has no reason to apologize as he continued to deny having any knowledge of the impermissible scouting operation that triggered an NCAA investigation of his University of Michigan program during its national-championship run last year.

“Never lie. Never cheat. Never steal. I was raised with that lesson. I have raised my family on that lesson. I have preached that lesson to the teams I’ve coached. No one’s perfect. If you stumble, you apologize, and you make it right,“ Harbaugh said after practice. “Today, I do not apologize. I did not participate. I was not aware nor complicit in those said allegations. So, for me, it’s back to work and attacking with an enthusiasm unknown to mankind.”
