Resolution criteria

Resolution will be determined by official NFL announcements or Giants team statements confirming his departure.

Resolution is based on the exact date that Harbaugh resigns or is fired.

Background

Harbaugh signed a five-year, $100 million deal with the Giants in January 2026. He coached the Ravens for 18 seasons and compiled a 180-113 regular-season record, leading the team to a Super Bowl victory in 2013. The Giants finished 4-13 in 2025 and fired head coach Brian Daboll in November.

Considerations

NFL head coaching tenures are unpredictable. While Harbaugh's contract runs through 2030, coaches can be fired before their deals expire, or they may resign. The Giants' recent history shows instability—five full-time head coaches have cycled through since Tom Coughlin's resignation following the 2015 season. Early performance and roster development will significantly influence whether Harbaugh completes his full contract.
