UPDATE:
According to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN, Jim Harbaugh conveyed legitimate interest in the Vikings’ head-coaching job during his interview with the team, per source, with Minnesota coming away feeling Harbaugh is ready for a return to the NFL. As of now, he’s still considered in the mix for that job.

FROM SUNDAY:
On Saturday afternoon, news broke that Jim Harbaugh was going to interview with the Minnesota Vikings.
Some outlets quickly changed that to Harbaugh ‘has already interviewed’ with the Vikings.
According to Tom Pelissero of the NFL.com, Harbaugh has not officially interviewed with the Vikings, but the two sides did have an ‘exploratory conversation’ on Saturday.
From NFL Network:
The Vikings requested and received permission from Michigan to speak with Harbaugh — standard process for NFL teams — and had an exploratory conversation with him Saturday afternoon to gauge his interest, sources say. Nothing further is scheduled, but Harbaugh remains a candidate for the job and it wouldn’t be surprising if the Vikings bring him to the facility this week.
