• Begins his second full season as offensive line coach for BC in 2019 after helping mentor Chris Lindstrom into All-America status in 2018 en route to becoming BC's 20th all-time first-round NFL draft pick.
• Lindstrom was the ninth Boston College offensive lineman selected in the first round and the first since Anthony Castonzo went 22nd overall to the Indianapolis Colts in 2011.

Lindstrom was named an All-American by the AFCA (second team), The Athletic (second team) and the Associated Press (third team).
• Trautwein coached four players who earned All-ACC honors in his first season coaching the line as Aaron Monteiro, John Baker and Ben Petrula joined Lindstrom on the all-conference teams. Monteiro signed a free agent contract with the Miami Dolphins following the 2019 NFL Draft.
• Hired as the tight ends coach at Davidson College for the 2016 season.
• Promoted to special teams coordinator in 2017 at Davidson, while retaining tight end duties.
