Barely 24 hours after firing offensive line coach Harry Hiestand, the Bears have reportedly found their new offensive line coach.

According to NFL Network reporter Tom Pelissero, the team is hiring Juan Castillo to replace Hiestand:

Veteran assistant Juan Castillo will be joining the #Bears as their offensive line coach, source said. A big move for Matt Nagy’s staff.

Castillo has worked primarily as a line coach since he started with Texas A&M University–Kingsville in 1982. Since then, he's held positions with the Eagles (2005-2012, including five seasons with Matt Nagy), Ravens (2013-2016), and Buffalo Bills (2017-2018).
