The Ravens requested an interview with Dolphins DC Anthony Weaver for their head coaching job, per source. Weaver played and coached for the Ravens and has been a finalist for multiple head coaching jobs in the past.

The Ravens requested an interview with Seahawks OC Klint Kubiak for their head coaching job, per source. That’s five interview requests for Kubiak, who can interview for jobs during Seattle’s playoff bye this week.

The Raiders requested an interview with Broncos quarterbacks coach Davis Webb for their head coaching job, per sources. Still just 30 years old, Webb spent six years as an NFL QB before going straight into coaching and has been on the fast track. A fascinating candidate.

And now John Harbaugh, who had three years left on his contract in Baltimore, immediately becomes a top candidate on the market.

The Ravens are holding a meeting now to inform staff. After 18 seasons, John Harbaugh is out in Baltimore.

The Ravens fired John Harbaugh, sources tell The Insiders.

The Lions fired offensive coordinator John Morton, per sources.

As the Falcons complete the process of hiring their new president of football, one point of clarity: My understanding is Matt Ryan would not continue working at CBS if and when he’s hired. Ryan lives in the ATL area and intends to be all-in on rebuilding the football operation.

Here’s an illustrated chart showing the NFL’s early head coach interview schedule. No *in-person* interviews with coaches who are currently employed by NFL teams are allowed until Jan. 19.

The Cowboys fired defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus, per sources.

The Dolphins requested an interview with 49ers assistant general manager RJ Gillen for their GM job, per source.

The Cardinals are retaining GM Monti Ossenfort, who will be part of the search for the new head coach after the firing of Jonathan Gannon.

The Cardinals have fired Jonathan Gannon, per @rapsheet.bsky.social

The Dolphins also requested interviews with 49ers VP of Player Personnel Tariq Ahmad and director of scouting and football operations Josh Williams for their GM job, per sources.

The Dolphins put in a request to interview Eagles assistant GM Alec Halaby for their general manager job, per source.

The Dolphins requested an interview with Packers VP of Player Personnel Jon-Eric Sullivan for their GM job, per source.

Tom Brady is in the Raiders facility today as he prepares to take on a bigger role in the team's football operation, along with his college teammate, GM John Spytek.

According to owner Mark Davis, GM John Spytek will now lead all football operations in close collaboration with Tom Brady -- including the search for the Raiders' new head coach.

The Raiders fired Pete Carroll.

Full wild card weekend schedule:

The road to Super Bowl LX will go through Seattle.

49ers TE George Kittle (ankle) is officially active for tonight's game against Seattle, while LT Trent Williams (hamstring) and WR Ricky Pearsall (knee/ankle) are out.

What NFL teams could make coaching changes in the coming days? A look ahead at a decidedly uncertain landscape from me and @rapsheet.bsky.social: www.nfl.com/news/raiders...

The Bucs have activated DL Calijah Kancey from IR ahead of Saturday’s game against the Panthers.

Expect a wide-ranging and deliberate head coaching search for the Titans that includes, among others, Mike McCarthy, Matt Nagy, Jeff Hafley, Jesse Minter, Robert Saleh and Chris Shula.

The Titans are restructuring their football operation as they enter a big month. Details from me and @rapsheet.bsky.social on the talks that led to streamlining between Chad Brinker and GM Mike Borgonzi, who will now control the roster and lead the coaching search. www.nfl.com/news/titans-...

As expected: TJ Watt is back for the AFC North title game.

Bucs QB Baker Mayfield (right shoulder/knee) and LT Tristan Wirfs (turf toe) are officially off the injury report and good to Saturday vs. the Panthers.

Panthers RB Rico Dowdle (toe) returned to practice as a full participant today ahead of Saturday's game vs. Tampa Bay.

Lamar Jackson officially making his first appearance at a Wednesday practice in a month. He has been on the injury report every game since Week 11.

Statement from the New England Patriots:

Jordan Love remains in concussion protocol, coach Matt LaFleur said, but will practice again today. Malik Willis (right shoulder) will be limited.

Veteran QB Desmond Ridder is signing to the Packers practice squad, per source. With Jordan Love and Malik Willis dealing with injuries and Green Bay locked into the No. 7 seed, Ridder could be elevated for Sunday’s game vs. Minnesota.

My understanding is Diggs’ release was not a result of a specific incident. It was the culmination of multiple factors spread over time, including both performance and other elements. The team felt it was best for both Trevon and the Cowboys to move on at this point.

Any team claiming Trevon Diggs would be responsible for his remaining $472,222 guaranteed game check this season. That makes it likely he clears waivers and then will become a free agent.

The Cowboys have waived CB Trevon Diggs.

From the NFL: “We are aware of the matter and have been in contact with the club. We have no further comment at this time.”

Statement from the New England Patriots:

Only one team is locked into a seed: The Packers will be the NFC’s No. 7 and play a road wild card game against the 2 seed.

NFC 🏈 Division clinched: Eagles, Bears 🏈 In playoffs: Seahawks, Rams, 49ers, Packers 🏈 Alive: Panthers, Bucs for South title AFC 🏈 Division clinched: Broncos 🏈 In playoffs: Patriots, Jaguars, Bills, Texans, Chargers 🏈 Alive: Ravens, Steelers for North title

Meanwhile, the Chargers will have to go on the road — again — in the wild-card round.

Texans finishing off a win over the Chargers, which means: 🏈 Houston is in the playoffs 🏈 Indianapolis is out 🏈 Denver clinches the AFC West One AFC playoff spot left, which Pittsburgh would clinch if Baltimore loses tonight.

The NFL fined Bears DE Austin Booker $11,636 total for two illegal hits last week on Packers QB Jordan Love — including the helmet-to-helmet shot that knocked Love of the game. Love remains in concussion protocol and is out tonight against the Ravens

The Patriots placed WR Mack Hollins on injured reserve.

The Steelers ruled out LB T.J. Watt (lung) for Sunday vs. Cleveland.

So with the Ravens’ season on the line Saturday night against the Packers, backup Tyler Huntley is once again in line for a critical start in place of an injured Lamar Jackson.

Jaguars CB Jourdan Lewis is set to undergo foot surgery and will miss the rest of the season, per sources. After eight seasons in Dallas, Lewis signed a three-year, $30 million contract with Jacksonville in March and had two interceptions in 12 games for the AFC South leaders.

Steelers LB T.J. Watt (lung) returned to practice today and was officially listed as a limited participant.

Here is the Lions fan code of conduct. The team found no violation and does not plan to action against the fan, who identified himself to the @freep.com as Ryan Kennedy. But the NFL is now following up with the team after hearing from DK Metcalf and others in his appeal hearing.

Update: Per the NFL, the matter remains under review. After hearing from DK Metcalf in his appeal hearing Tuesday, the league is following up with the Lions regarding the fan code of conduct.
