NFL Rumors: Jim Harbaugh Isn't Being Pursued by Panthers amid Broncos, Colts Buzz

Despite their need for a new head coach, the Carolina Panthers are not pursuing University of Michigan head coach Jim Harbaugh, according to Mike Sando and Joe Person of The Athletic.

NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reported on Sunday that the Denver Broncos plan to interview Harbaugh for their head coaching vacancy this week, and Zak Keefer of The Athletic reported last month that multiple league sources are "convinced" Harbaugh is atop Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay's wish list.

The Panthers fired Matt Rhule after a 1-4 start this season, and interim head coach Steve Wilks proved to be a stabilizing force, leading Carolina to a respectable 6-6 mark the rest of the way.
