Timothy Christian Hauck (born December 20, 1966) is a former American football safety in the National Football League (NFL).[1] He is a defensive analyst for the University of Montana.

Playing career[edit]

Hauck is the son of a former Big Timber high school coach. Originally, he signed with the University of Portland where he was all-conference. Then, he transferred to the University of Montana where he became defensive MVP for the Big Sky conference. After his senior year at Montana, he went undrafted, but claimed to have received 10 offers following the draft. He signed with the New England Patriots where he made the roster and spent one season.[2]

Hauck had a long and fairly successful NFL playing career. In 1999 with the Philadelphia Eagles, Hauck replaced Mike Zordich as the starting strong-side safety, forming a tandem with Brian Dawkins. In 2000, Hauck was replaced by Damon Moore, but he remained with the Eagles as a reserve safety until the end of the 2001 season. He is perhaps best remembered as the player who tackled Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Michael Irvin, and caused his career-ending spinal cord injury in 1999.

Coaching career[edit]

Hauck worked coaching the defensive secondary for the University of Montana. In 2008, he was hired by UCLA to coach the team's defensive secondary. In 2009, Hauck went to the NFL's Tennessee Titans to coach their defensive secondary.

On January 23, 2012, the Cleveland Browns announced the hiring of Hauck as the team's defensive backs coach. On February 13, 2013, UNLV announced the hiring of Hauck as the team's new defensive coordinator and cornerbacks coach under his brother, head coach Bobby Hauck. He was hired by the Eagles as the team's safeties coach on January 20, 2016.[3] Hauck won his first Super Bowl ring when the Eagles defeated the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LII.[4]
