In a heartfelt statement, Harbaugh said, “It has been the greatest honor of my life to coach this team, but my health and well-being must come first. After much thought and prayer, I have decided that it is time to step away from coaching to focus on my health and spend more time with my family.”
Harbaugh’s retirement marks the end of an era for the Ravens, as he has been one of the most successful and respected coaches in the NFL.
