It appears as though Jim Harbaugh’s negotiations with an AFC club are quickly picking up steam.
According to Darren M. Haynes of KCAL in Los Angeles, Harbaugh is in the Los Angeles Chargers’ facility and not at Michigan. The Bolts first interviewed Harbaugh for their head coaching vacancy nine days ago.
It was reported earlier in the day by Bleacher Report’s Jordan Schultz that Harbaugh’s scheduled second interview with the Atlanta Falcons today was canceled. A source told Schultz that the interview was “being moved for now.”
The Falcons are viewed as the heavy front-runners to land former New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick, who completed his second interview with the team last week. Whether or not the team plans to interview Harbaugh again remains to be seen.

The Chargers fired head coach Brandon Staley after losing nine of their first 14 games. Giff Smith finished the season as the interim HC, losing all three games. The Falcons’ head coaching vacancy opened up after they fired Arthur Smith following a third straight 7-10 season.
Harbaugh has been the head coach of the Michigan Wolverines since 2015, having just led them to a national championship victory over the Washington Huskies. Harbaugh has compiled an 89-25-0 record over his nine years in Michigan.
The 60-year-old was also previously the head coach of the San Francisco 49ers (2011 to 2014) and the Stanford Cardinal (2007 to 2010).
