John Harbaugh hints brother Jim is done with 49ers

It seems like a foregone conclusion that San Francisco 49ers head coach Jim Harbaugh will be coaching elsewhere next season.

So much so that his brother, John - head coach of the Baltimore Ravens - seems to think it's a done deal.

"I know just from Jim's standpoint, he's done something there that's been absolutely historic and amazing, it's never been really accomplished in the history of football before, in terms of what he's done for the city and for the fans there and for the players there," John Harbaugh told CSNBaltimore.com, according to ProFootballTalk.

"And I'm proud as heck of him. Whatever’s next for him, he'll do a great job there, whatever it is. He'll be fired up and excited to do it. So I'm proud of him no matter what happens. I think they had a great coach there for the last four years, and they were blessed and fortunate to have him. I know the fans realize that and the players realize that, and that's really what counts."

Where Jim ends up next season is still up in the air, but it certainly seems like San Francisco is all but out of the running.
