New York Giants reportedly closing in on John Harbaugh as next head coach

John Harbaugh, with 180 career wins and a Super Bowl title, is expected to become the Giants' new head coach to improve their 4-13 record last season.

  • ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Wednesday night that the New York Giants are closing in on John Harbaugh, with both sides working to finalize an agreement and contract numbers still under negotiation on Jan. 15, 2026.
  • Harbaugh became available after he was dismissed by the Baltimore Ravens, and the Giants, coming off a 3-14 season, want an established leader, with interest in his strong quarterback and draft focus.
  • The Giants flew Harbaugh in on co-owner Steve Tisch's private jet Wednesday morning, then he toured the Giants practice facility in East Rutherford, New Jersey, and met ownership and Joe Schoen.
  • A finalized deal would make Harbaugh one of the earliest hires this coaching cycle, making him the New York Giants' 23rd head coach and the first of nine teams to fill a vacancy this offseason.
  • Contract talks are ongoing with sources saying `There still is a lot to work through,` and John Harbaugh has a scheduled interview with the Tennessee Titans on Jan. 15, while the Atlanta Falcons and Miami Dolphins remain interested.
