Report: Jim Harbaugh Could Be Interested in NFL Openings

Few coaches find success at both the college and NFL level, but Jim Harbaugh fits the bill. After leading his alma mater Michigan to its first College Football Playoff appearance, a new report from The Athletic indicates that Harbaugh could have real interest in returning to pro football, with the Bears and Raiders jobs cited as possibilities for him.

“Harbaugh might be tempted to leave the Wolverines to return to the NFL,” The Athletic's Bruce Feldman wrote Tuesday.

The Raiders job is the main potential NFL cited. Harbaugh has a pre-existing relationship with owner Mark Davis, and the Raiders are equipped with a competitive roster, including star quarterback Derek Carr.
