"John Harbaugh has completed his first interview. Although the Giants have come up as the most interested party, they did not land the first meeting. The Falcons did. Atlanta announced an interview with Harbaugh occurred Monday. More meetings will be expected for the in-demand candidate, but it is certainly notable the Falcons completed the first one. Even with the Giants showing persistent interest, the Falcons joined them in closely monitoring Harbaugh even before the Ravens fired him."
"The recently fired coach was believed to be setting up meetings, and based on the reported interest so far, this should be a busy week. Harbaugh spent the weekend making staff preparations, and a report earlier today indicated the Falcons and Giants were viewed as the early leaders. Though, the Browns, Dolphins and Titans are also believed to remain in play."
"The Falcons, who were also linked to Harbaugh along with the Giants shortly after his Ravens ouster, were believed to be "increasingly interested" in the former Super Bowl-winning HC. They make sense as a logical landing spot, and the team now figures to move toward choosing its next HC now that Matt Ryan is officially on board in a high-ranking front office role. More to come."
John Harbaugh completed his first interview with the Atlanta Falcons on Monday. The Giants were viewed as the most interested team but did not hold the first meeting. The Falcons had monitored Harbaugh even before the Ravens fired him and completed the initial interview. Harbaugh was believed to be arranging multiple meetings, making this a potentially busy week. Harbaugh spent the weekend preparing staff plans, and reports listed the Falcons and Giants as early leaders. The Browns, Dolphins and Titans also remain in play. The Falcons appear a logical landing spot as they move toward selecting a new head coach with Matt Ryan in a front-office role.
