The UCLA Bruins football program continues to shake up its coaching staff. After Eric Bieniemy was named the associate head coach and offensive coordinator, the Bruins have now parted ways with offensive line coach Tim Drevno despite him having two years left on his contract.
The Bruins are now set to name Juan Castillo as the new OL coach, per Bruce Feldman of The Athletic.
Castillo spent 13 seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFL and spent the last two seasons with the Washington Commanders and Bieniemy. Castillo was the run game coordinator in 2023 and tight ends coach in 2022.
The veteran coach also spent time with the Michigan Wolverines as an offensive analyst, his only year not in the NFL since 1995.

The Bruins have now hired another coach with loads of NFL experience as first-year head coach DeShaun Foster tries to bring the program back.
