Harbaugh will be assisted by his Ravens coaching staff while
Garrett will be similarly accompanied by his Cowboys staff, the
NFL said in a statement.
Coaches from the highest-seeded teams that lose in the AFC and
NFC divisional playoff games are usually named coaches for the
Pro Bowl but Harbaugh was added after the Denver Broncos parted
ways with John Fox on Monday.
The exhibition game featuring many the game's top players not
still in the playoffs, will be played at the University of
Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, on Jan. 25, one week
before the Super Bowl is played at the same venue.
Pro Football Hall of Famers Cris Carter and Michael Irvin will
serve as alumni team captains and will select their coaching
staff for the game.
