If Hiestand's name sounds familiar, he was Lovie Smith's offensive line coach with the Bears from 2005-09, when C Olin Kreutz earned two of his six Pro Bowl appearances and both All-Pro nods.
Hiestand, 59, is a 35-year coaching veteran who spent the past five seasons overseeing the Fighting Irish offensive line. During that time, he coached Cowboys All-Pro LG and former first-rounder, C Zack Martin, and Ravens' 2016 first-round LT Ronnie Stanley, among four drafted players.
Hiestand most recently worked with OG Quenton Nelson, an All-American and likely high first-round pick, and OT Mike McGlinchey, a two-time team captain and 2016 All-American who's also likely to be a first-round pick in April.
