The market resolves to Yes if Jim Harbaugh leaves his role as head coach of the Los Angeles Chargers or announces he will leave before March 1, 2027. The outcome is No if he remains in that position past that date.

The market resolves to "Yes" if Jim Harbaugh leaves his role as head coach of the Los Angeles Chargers or announces he will leave before any other NFL head coach does, and this happens between now and February 15, 2027.
