Giants Target John Harbaugh, Weekend Meeting Planned in Three-Team Race

Harbaugh is prioritizing destinations with a settled quarterback.

Overview

  • The veteran coach plans in-person meetings with the Giants, Falcons and Titans by the end of the weekend, according to multiple reports.
  • New York has led an unusually public recruitment, with Eli Manning, Tom Coughlin and recently fired Brian Daboll calling Harbaugh, and executive Chris Mara meeting him in Baltimore.
  • Owner John Mara remains engaged despite his cancer battle, and he is expected to be in the office for the Giants’ session, per reporter Gary Myers.
  • Harbaugh has been studying film of rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart, aligning with Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti’s view that he will not accept a job lacking a quarterback.
  • Reports indicate the Giants are prepared to extend an offer immediately after a formal interview, a high-reward approach that could carry optics risk if he chooses another team.
