Link to storyFormer Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh is expected to agree to terms on a contract to become the new head coach of the New York Giants in the coming days, according to multiple sources via ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Link to storyAtlanta Falcons offensive coordinator Zac Robinson is expected to interview for the vacant Detroit Lions' offensive coordinator position on Thursday, Jan. 14, according to sources.
| Footballguys view: Robinson's offense didn't really click with the Falcons, but that could have been from the quarterback play of Michael Penix and Kirk Cousins. He's a disciple of Sean McVay, and that's going to be attractive to teams out there (with better quarterbacks) who want that West Coast philosophy. |

Ohio State University TE Max Klare has declared for the 2026 NFL Draft.
| Footballguys view: Klare is a talented tight end with soft hands and high football intelligence. There's some Zach Ertz to his game, and Klare can step in from day one and help move the chains. Right now, Klare is seen as a Day 2 pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. |
Las Vegas Raiders WR Tre Tucker said he believes the offense would benefit from consistency from one season to the next. 'For us, every offseason is learning a new offense, Tucker said. 'It's like you are starting all over. I've played three different roles in three systems. I'm going to have to play another role in another system.'

Seattle Seahawks TE AJ Barner (hip) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Jan. 14.
| Footballguys view: Barner is in line for a few targets per game every time he's out there. He also can get a sneaky touchdown here and there. He's good for the Divisional Round game on Saturday against the 49ers. |
Seattle Seahawks WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba (non-injury) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Jan. 14.
| Footballguys view: Smith-Njigba is one of the best in the game. He was just getting some rest earlier this week, but he's good to go for the Divisional Round game against the 49ers on Saturday. |

Los Angeles Rams TE Terrance Ferguson (hamstring) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Jan. 14. The Rams only held a walkthrough Wednesday, so this is an estimation.
| Footballguys view: Ferguson missed the Wild Card Game against the Panthers, but he's trending to get out there on Sunday against the Bears. Having him on the field just gives Matthew Stafford another dangerous weapon in the passing game...and in the red zone. |
