Jeff Garcia, a four-time Pro Bowler, retired from football in 2011 after a long and successful career. Despite the fact that he no longer plays professionally, he remains active in the sport.
Through his Jeff Garcia Football Program, he runs various youth football camps with the goal of coaching and nurturing the next generation of football players.
He was on the board of advisors for the reconstituted United States Football League (USFL), which was launched in May 2012, in addition to his youth football camps. Garcia was also signed as an offensive assistant by the Los Angeles Rams in May 2015.
Garcia is still highly passionate about sports, despite the fact that he has been retired for a decade. He is not, however, the only member of his family who enjoys the sport. His children all enjoy football and play it.
The Post-Retirement Life of Jeff Garcia
After retiring from the NFL, the former quarterback has been concentrating on his family. Garcia, who is married to Carmella DeCesare, a Playmate from 2004, frequently blogs about their four children, Preston, Jax, Jason, and Faith.
Garcia is extremely proud of his children and has instilled in them his passion for football. He has previously discussed spending time with his sons discussing the game as a way of bonding with them.
Jeff Garcia’s Relationship With His Wife
It’s unclear when Garcia and DeCesare started dating, but her mother, Carmen Figueroa, confirmed Garcia was seeing her daughter in a September 2004 interview with Cleveland Magazine. The couple married on April 21, 2007, at the CordeValle Resort in San Martin, California.
In 2012, Garcia referred to his wife as his “agent,” indicating that any teams interested in approaching him had to persuade his wife because their lives were so chaotic with four small children.
Garcia has thanked his wife for raising their four children with him on several occasions. They founded the Garcia Pass It On Foundation in addition to working together as parents.
The foundation was founded in order to share resources with those who are less fortunate. The pair aspires to give back in a tangible way to causes near to their hearts and to pass on their success to children.
Garcia’s Eyes Up Foundation also works to raise awareness and provide financial assistance to low-income areas in the form of scholarships, resources, and support.
His purpose, according to his website, is to use his professional achievements in the field as a springboard to help others and give back.
