President Donald Trump is now in the business of giving out advice to NFL franchises. Trump, a longtime football fan, reacted Wednesday to the firing of Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh .
Harbaugh is now available to any team with a head coaching vacancy — even some who don’t — this hiring cycle. Trump believes Harbaugh is the No. 1 candidate on the market and would encourage any team to hire him and do it quickly.
“HIRE JOHN HARBAUGH, FAST,” Trump posted on Truth Social. “HE, AND HIS BROTHER, ARE TOTAL WINNERS!!! President DJT.”
Trump is correct in that Harbaugh is a winner. He guided the Ravens to a 180-113 record across 18 seasons, earning 12 trips to the postseason. Harbaugh led Baltimore to a Super Bowl XLVII victory over the San Francisco 49ers. While the Ravens never got to the Super Bowl in any other season under Harbaugh, they made three additional appearances in the AFC Championship Game.
John Harbaugh is available for hire, will be a popular interview
Harbaugh is one of the most respected coaches in the NFL and it’s not often a coach with 180 wins comes available. That will make him highly coveted for interviews by teams with vacancies. According to reports, the sudden addition of Harbaugh could even force teams that aren’t currently looking for a head coach to reevaluate.
