As the NFL moves on from the regular season to the playoffs, what’s known as “Black Monday” is officially upon us, aka the day that a lot of head coaches are fired on. The league has several vacancies now with multiple coaches let go already.
The Titans were the first team to let go of their head coach this year, firing Brian Callahan back in October. The organization is also reportedly looking to change their front office structure next season. General manager Mike Borgonzi will lead the coaching search.
The Giants were the next to follow Tennessee, firing Brian Daboll after a 2-8 start. Daboll was hired by New York in 2022, and it was their only winning season with a 9-7-1 finish. However, they made it all the way to the NFC Championship game that year. Daboll had a 20-40-1 overall record with the Giants.
The Falcons were the first team to make a move once the regular season concluded for them, firing Raheem Morris hours after they won their season finale over the Saints to finish 8-9. They also fired Terry Fontenot

John Harbaugh’s time with the Ravens came to an end after 18 seasons when the team fired him on Tuesday. The most winningest coach in team history was let go two days after the team missed the playoffs for the first time since 2021. Harbaugh will leave Baltimore with an 180-113 regular season record, 13-11 in the playoffs, and a win in Super Bowl XLVII. He is excepted to be a top candidate for several openings.
The Dolphins parted ways with Mike McDaniel after a consecutive losing season that culminated in a 7-10 finish. McDaniel became a first-time head coach in 2022 after serving as the run game coordinator and offensive coordinator for the San Francisco 49ers. He led Miami to the playoffs in his first two seasons. However, in high leverage seasons, the team would falter. They were 4-17 under McDaniel against teams with a winning record.
