Brandon Cuevas is in his fifth year with the Princeton staff in 2025 and third as the offensive line coach after spending the first two seasons as the running backs coach.

The Tigers had two offensive linemen in Tommy Matheson (second-team) and Nicholas Hilliard (honorable mention) earn All-Ivy status in 2024. John Volker also collected honorable mention All-Ivy honors. Volker finished fifth in the Ivy League in rushing (57.1 yards per game), and he capped his career in style, rushing for 130 yards, including a 75-yard touchdown, in a season-ending win over Penn.

Jalen Travis '24 was selected in the fourth round of the 2025 NFL Draft by the Indianapolis Colts. Travis (127th overall) is the highest selection of a Princeton football player in the modern NFL Draft era surpassing Seth DeValve who was picked 138th overall in the fourth round of the 2016 draft by the Cleveland Browns.

Princeton recorded 10 All-Ivy selections with Ozzie Nicholas and Liam Nicholas earning First-Team accolades in 2023. Travis, in addition to second-team All-Ivy honors, collected the 2024 Coach Wooden Citizenship Cup and won the Princeton University Art Lane ’34 Cup. Hilliard also nabbed an All-Ivy accolade.

The 2022 season saw Princeton go 8-2 and be in contention for the Ivy League title into the final week of the regular season. The Tigers had 16 All-Ivy selections tied for second-most at Princeton since 2013. Ryan Butler (RB) was honored as honorable mention All-Ivy after rushing for 501 yards and scoring 11 touchdowns.

The 2021 season saw Princeton go 9-1 and earn an Ivy League title, its third in five seasons. The Tigers had 16 All-Ivy selections including 10 first-team honorees, a program record. The offense ranked first in the Ivy League in scoring (33.4), second in passing offense (265.5), second in passing efficiency (147.0) and third in total offense (392.4). Collin Eaddy picked up First-Team All-Ivy honors.

Prior to his time at Princeton, Cuevas spent two years at Lehigh, where he coached running backs in 2018 and tight ends in 2019.

As a player, he started 30 games on the line at Susquehanna, where he also was a preseason All-America, the Bob Pitello Offensive Lineman of the Year award winner and a Team Stars and Stripes All-American his senior year. An all-league selection as well, he graduated with a degree in psychology.

His first coaching stop was at Salve Regina, where he coached running backs and tight ends while also serving as video coordinator. He then coached at Susquehanna and Marist before going to Lehigh.
