The Buffalo Bills coaching job opening makes John Harbaugh and Kevin Stefanski's decisions feel a bit premature.
The Giants didn’t like the Falcons’ chirping. Big Blue did not appreciate Atlanta announcing Monday it had completed an interview with John Harbaugh that would later be revealed to be an exploratory phone call — which he had with multiple other teams as well.
The Atlanta Falcons moved quickly to hire former Cleveland Browns coach Kevin Stefanski, who started Shedeur Sanders the final seven games of 2025.
Matt Ryan's job as president of football for the Falcons of hiring a new coach got much harder on Saturday after John Harbaugh officially chose the Giants.
As of Monday, it is believed the Falcons join the Giants as the early leaders for the 18-year veteran HC, CBS Sports’ Jonathan Jones notes. This is a sentiment shared around the coaching market, according to SNY’s Connor Hughes, who indicates the current expectation points to Harbaugh ending up in Atlanta or New York.
John Harbaugh's first stop on his interview tour is now known, and it could be the biggest threat to the Giants.
One name likely to surface is former Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh. After 18 seasons, the Ravens shockingly moved on from Harbaugh, and his phone has reportedly been ringing ever since. Whether any of those calls have come from Atlanta remains unclear, but according to SNY TV’s Connor Hughes, the Falcons are very much in the mix.
