Speculation about Harbaugh’s departure is nothing new for Michigan fans. He has been heavily linked to NFL jobs since the conclusion of the 2021 season, even interviewing with the Minnesota Vikings.
Similar reports emerged at the end of the 2022 season, and they have bubbled up even more with sign-stealing allegations on the horizon. Harbaugh was linked to the Los Angeles Chargers head coaching job following the firing of former head coach Brandon Staley. NFL analyst Chris Fallica predicted the move in a recent interview, which was outlined by an article from EssentiallySports.
“I would think he’ll be the head coach of the Los Angeles Chargers next year. I think if you look at all of the situations out there. This is a spot for him, I think, where he can land, you get a great situation. I think the ultimate landing spot for Harbaugh will be the Chargers.” – said Fallica
Harbaugh NFL rumors ramped up after he became the subject of an NCAA sign-stealing investigation. He was suspended for three games at the end of the regular season by the Big Ten, and many speculated he would jump ship to avoid the fallout of the scandal.
