Harbaugh brings 24 years of coaching experience with him, even though he has never been in charge of an offense or a defense.



That only intensified the excitement he derived from becoming the third head coach in the 12-year history of the franchise.

“I’m a football coach. I’ve been a football coach for a long time,” Harbaugh said. “I’m proud to be the football coach of the Baltimore Ravens.”



“I wouldn’t be sitting here with this chance if it wasn’t for Andy Reid,” Harbaugh said. “He’s been my mentor for nine years now.”
