JIM HARBAUGH: San Francisco 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh will not return for the final season of his $25 million, five-year contract he signed in January 2011.
The announcement came Sunday after a 20-17 win over the Arizona Cardinals and following a 8-8 season in which San Francisco had hoped to establish some momentum in the new $1.3 billion Levi’s Stadium.
Multiple media outlets are reporting that Harbaugh will take over as head man at his alma mater, the University of Michigan.
