"The New York Giants clearly love John Harbaugh, and some of that admiration is at least mutual, which bodes well for the downtrodden organization. The former Baltimore Ravens' head coach had lunch with Chris Mara on Sunday, the long-time Giants executive told Ian O'Connor of The Athletic. The meeting, per multiple Giants officials, went well, and there is a clear interest in the New York job."
"[He] has put [the Giants] at or near the top of a very long list of possibilities, O'Connor wrote. Paul Schwartz of the New York Post added that former Giants coaching legend Tom Coughlin, who won a pair of Super Bowls with the team, is believed to have spoken with Harbaugh and has no doubt [put] in a good word about the Giants. Harbaugh has yet to have a formal interview, though."
"He spoke with the Atlanta Falcons on Monday, but the conversation with Matt Ryan was conducted virtually. Formal interviews are expected to take place at some point this week, although there is speculation that the 63-year-old is waiting to see what the Green Bay Packers do with head coach Matt LaFleur after his team collapsed in the NFC Wild Card round on Saturday night against the Chicago Bears."
John Harbaugh met with Giants executive Chris Mara and is a top candidate for the New York Giants' head coaching vacancy. Multiple Giants officials said the meeting went well and expressed clear interest in him. Tom Coughlin reportedly recommended Harbaugh to Giants leaders. Harbaugh held a virtual conversation with Matt Ryan of the Atlanta Falcons and has not yet completed a formal interview. Formal interviews are expected this week. Harbaugh is reportedly weighing whether to wait for a possible opening with the Green Bay Packers after their Wild Card collapse against the Chicago Bears. The Packers present a ready-to-contend option with a strong defense and young quarterback Jordan Love, while the Falcons show developmental promise in a weak NFC South.
