BALTIMORERAVENS.COM 1 JUAN CASTILLO, a 35-year coaching veteran, is in his fourth season with the Ravens and his third as the team’s offensive line coach. Castillo was promoted to coach the offensive line in 2014 after serving as the Ravens’ run game coordinator in 2013. Last season (2015), Castillo guided an offensive line that helped produce a franchise-record 4,271 net passing yards and the second-most total net yards (5,749) in team history. In 2014, Castillo led an O-line that permitted just 19 sacks, the second fewest in team history (17 in 2006), ranking behind only Denver (17) as the NFL’s fewest. The O-line also helped protect QB Joe Flacco, who posted a career best in passing yards (3,986) and TD passes (27). RB Justin Forsett produced a career-high 1,266 rushing yards (NFL’s fifth most) and led the league with a team-record 17 rushes of 20-plus yards, earning his first Pro Bowl. In 2013, Castillo worked with a line that helped Flacco set career highs in attempts (614), completions (362) and then-passing yards (3,912). He originally joined the team as a consultant prior to Super Bowl XLVII in January 2013. CASTILLO COACHING HIGHLIGHTS: Castillo has also served in various roles over 18 seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles, including spending the majority of his final two years (2011-12) as the Eagles’ defensive coordinator. Under his tutelage, Philadelphia’s defense led the NFL with 50 sacks in 2011, also ranking eighth in yards allowed (324.9 ypg) and 10th in points allowed (20.5 ppg). Castillo spent his first 16 NFL seasons with the Eagles as the offensive line coach (1998-2010), tight ends coach (1997) and as an offensive assistant (1995-96). In 2010, Philadelphia’s offense set franchise marks in total points (439), total net yards (6,230) and yards per rush (5.4, the NFL’s best). With each of the team’s primary running backs averaging more than 5.0 yards per attempt, the Eagles became the first team in NFL history to average at least 4.0 yards per carry in all 16 regular season games, helping LT Jason Peters earn his second-straight Pro Bowl nod. Under Castillo, four Eagles linemen earned their first-career Pro Bowl honors: T Tra Thomas, G Jermane Mayberry, T Jon Runyan and G Shawn Andrews, while Ravens RG Marshal Yanda earned his fifth-straight Pro Bowl in 2015. Philadelphia drafted three offensive linemen under Castillo in the first round: Mayberry (1996), Thomas (1998) and Andrews (2004). Castillo also helped recruit and develop five undrafted players that were molded into multi-year starters along the Eagles’ offensive line. During his tenure as an Eagles’ assistant, Philadelphia earned 11 playoff berths, six division titles, one conference championship and an appearance in Super Bowl XXXIX. He is one of a few coaches in league history of Hispanic descent, and his fluency in Spanish has allowed him to promote the COACHING BACKGROUND YEARS COLLEGE/PRO TEAM POSITION 1982-85 Texas A&M-Kingsville Linebackers/Defensive Line 1986-89 Kingsville (TX) HS Defensive Coordinator/Defensive Backs 1990-94 Texas A&M-Kingsville Offensive Line 1995-96 Philadelphia Eagles Offensive Assistant 1997 Philadelphia Eagles Tight Ends 1998-2010 Philadelphia Eagles Offensive Line 2011-12 Philadelphia Eagles Defensive Coordinator 2013 Baltimore Ravens Run Game Coordinator 2014-16 Baltimore Ravens Offensive Line Since 2014, Baltimore’s 43 sacks permitted rank as the NFL’s fewest.
