The Baltimore Ravens have fired long-time head coach John Harbaugh.

The New York Giants have reportedly had conversations regarding Harbaugh with respect to their vacant head coaching position. It’s expected that the Harbaugh would be the top candidate, hurdling former Browns coach Kevin Stefanski.

While nothing has been announced yet, Harbaugh could be scheduled for am immediate in-person interview as an unemployed candidate.

The Ravens have become the seventh team to have a head coaching vacancy after firing Harbaugh. The Giants have widely been regarded as having the top opening, but the Ravens are clear competition for the top candidates — save Harbaugh.

Harbaugh will be sought after, perhaps even by teams that don’t yet have vacancies at head coach.

Stefanski will interview in-person on Wednesday, which he is allowed to do because he is not currently employed by a team. Harbaugh would now also fit into that category.

The Giants have also either requested or are expected to request interviews with Denver Broncos defensive coordinator Vance Joseph, Indianapolis Colts defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo, former Washington Commanders offensive coordinator and Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury, Seattle Seahawks offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak and Giants interim head coach Mike Kafka.
