John Harbaugh’s tenure with the Baltimore Ravens came to an abrupt end on Tuesday when the organization announced that it had dismissed the coach following Sunday’s season finale. 

Given his resume, which includes six AFC North titles, four AFC Championship Game appearances and a Super Bowl title, it was reported that nine teams hardly waited to reach out to Harbaugh's agent with interest — excluding the Ravens, only six teams have head coach openings.

Some speculated that Harbaugh could take a year off, but his brother, Los Angeles Chargers head coach Jim, ruled that out on Wednesday.

"He'll be a head coach next year. We'll be playing against him in some form or fashion…" Jim said Wednesday. "Just hope it's in the NFC."

Ironically enough, Jim Harbaugh himself coached in the NFC during John's early days as the Ravens' head coach, and the brothers faced off in the Super Bowl.

The Ravens battled the Pittsburgh Steelers in a crucial division matchup, where the winner would be crowned AFC North champs and punch its ticket into the postseason, while the loser would be sent packing.
