Silence is Not Golden

It is being widely reported that the Ravens are in the process of extending John Harbaugh’s contract beyond the 2022 season. But so far, silence is apparently the team’s new M.O on most matters.

The extension is an important move for the club because a lame duck head coach with one year remaining on his contract will struggle to attract new assistants. If other coaching candidates are going to commit to the Ravens, they’ll be reluctant to join John’s staff if there’s a chance the career move could be a one (year) and done situation.

As you read this, there’s a better than 50-50 chance that the deal is done, at least in principal, barring any contractual setbacks.
