Hayes-Stoker spent  the last two seasons as the wide receivers coach for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers–coaching the likes of NFL stars such as Mike Evans and Vincent Jackson. However, he was let go as new head coach Dirk Koetter brought in a new coaching staff.

Prior to joining the Buccaneers, Hayes-Stoker served as the running backs coach for Florida International in 2013.

However, he was also an assistant wide receivers coach for Lovie Smith‘s Chicago Bears (2012), as well as an offensive quality control coach (2010-11), and football operations assistant (2006-09).

Hayes-Stoker played running back for TCU from 1998-2001, having backed up legendary Horned Frogs running back LaDainian Tomlinson. He was a two-time captain and earned All-America honors.

Regarding Quadrian Banks, he has served as the assistant strength and conditioning coach for the Philadelphia Eagles for the past 3 seasons.

Prior to joining the Eagles, he was the director of athletic performance for two seasons at Gardner Webb University. However, he’s also served as the assistant strength and conditioning coach at the University of Mississippi (2008-10) and University of Richmond (2007-08) among his other career stops.
