Super Bowl 2024: NFL’s John Harbaugh calls for players to keep family and faith ‘in perspective’

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh reflected on his team’s season ahead of Sunday’s Super Bowl game, calling faith and family the “most important thing” regardless of a game’s outcome.

Harbaugh appeared on One Nation with Brian Kilmeade Saturday to give greater context for how his faith and family helped him respond to the Ravens’ loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in the American Football Conference Championship last month, ending the team’s quest for the Super Bowl.

“I do believe Jesus is the author and the creator, the alpha, the omega, our Lord and Savior, I believe that. It’s not just out there in the atmosphere, it’s real, it’s in our hearts,” Harbaugh said. “I told our guys the day after the loss, that our job, our goal, what we want to try to accomplish is to do as much as we can while we can.”

While Harbaugh admitted he was “heartbroken” to come so close to the Super Bowl and he will “never get over it,” he acknowledged that his team did all that they could while they could.

“We need to continue doing that not just in football — with our families, with our kids, with our friends, all the people that are important to us, in our communities,” Harbaugh said. “Let’s remember where it all begins and where it all ends; that’s important to kind of keep it in perspective. Our team did that all year. We try to do that in our lives. It’s important. It’s the most important thing to me. That’s what it’s all about.”
