John Harbaugh Releases Statement After Being Fired By Baltimore Ravens

The longtime Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh was shockingly fired from the team this week, and he has released a statement.

The 63-year-old’s team lost in a heartbreaking moment during Sunday night football this past weekend. If they had won the game, they would have made the playoffs. The lost sent them packing, and apparently, cost John his job. He had been head coach for the Ravens for 18 seasons, which is highly unusual as coaches normally do not last that long with 1 team.

The Ravens won the 2013 Super Bowl with John at the helm.

Here’s his statement:

Well, I was hoping for a different kind of message on my last day here, someday, but that day has come today. ???? It comes with disappointment certainly, but more with GRATITUDE & APPRECIATION. Gratitude to the owner and organization who was willing to bring in a head coach who made his mark with Special Teams success. A difficult thing to do … and Appreciation for all the moments, all these years, that are etched into eternity. I hope a legacy built on Faith, always Fighting, always Believing. Values built into an Organization, through a Team, that are Worthwhile, Good and Lasting and that are admired by fans and foes alike. Meaningful & Impactful Relationships with Players through the years that I will cherish always. Grateful for their Strength and Courage. Loyal partnerships in this wonderful building, that grew into strong friendships, through the toil and tempest of the job every day. Mostly to my treasured Family, my Ingrid and my Alison, who are beyond compare in every way and the Loves of my life, and my close-knit family and good friends who stick with you no matter what. Finally, to the author and finisher of our faith, Gratitude for a Journey beyond anything I could have dreamed of on my own – All is well with my soul because of the Good God who guides and sustains me.

Already, John apparently has garnered interest from other teams searching for a new coach, with the New York Giants and Atlanta Falcons among names being thrown around.

Even Donald Trump decided to post about the shocking firing, writing on Truth Social, “HIRE JOHN HARBAUGH, FAST. HE, AND HIS BROTHER, ARE TOTAL WINNERS!!! President DJT.”
