Jim Harbaugh, Chargers meet for second interview

Jim Harbaugh may be on the verge of officially returning to the NFL.

Harbaugh was in Los Angeles on Tuesday for a second interview with the Chargers. According to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network, the Chargers have made Harbaugh an “extremely strong offer,” and the two sides are expected to begin discussing details like staffing.

Garafolo believes Harbaugh and the Chargers could reach an agreement soon.

“It feels like we’re now in the zone where something could happen between the Chargers and Jim Harbaugh in the near future. My understanding is this is an extremely strong offer that they have made to him financially,” Garafolo said. “They’re now at the point where they’re gonna discuss staffing when it comes to general manager and obviously coaching staff, who’s gonna work alongside Harbaugh as well. This feels like advancing to the point where if everybody’s comfortable with a lot of the principle factors at play, that this team could move on Jim Harbaugh and try to get him under contract here in the near future.”

Garafolo added that the talks have advanced to the point where it is clear Harbaugh is not just using the NFL for leverage in contract discussions with Michigan. You can hear more below:
