John Harbaugh, thought in most circles to be the leading candidate for the New York Giants vacant head-coaching job, has completed his first interview since being fired by the Baltimore Ravens last week.

Harbaugh, who coached the Ravens for 18 years before being fired last week, has drawn interest from a number of teams with — and without — coaching vacancies. He is expected to whittle the number of teams he will consider down to a handful he will accept interviews with.
Jonathan Jones of CBS Sports expects the Giants to be at or near the top of Harbaugh’s list....

The New York Giants are widely considered to have one of the top coaching vacancies among the teams on this year’s coaching carousel.
