For Jocelyn Lara, there’s no escaping football. Not just because her boyfriend, Joshua Dobbs, is a burgeoning NFL star but because she, too, has had a career in the sport. While the couple attended the University of Tennessee, Lara began her career in football. She was hired as a recruiting assistant for their university and worked as such for nearly three years. One of her duties in the position included being “responsible for the planning and the execution of official and unofficial recruiting visits, including game days,” as noted on her LinkedIn.
Lara joined the NFL’s Women’s Career in Football Forum in 2020. According to her LinkedIn, a select group of women were chosen to participate in the event, which is intended to “inspire, educate and connect qualified female candidates for Football Operations positions in the NFL, college, and high school football programs.”
Lara eventually left her position at the University of Tennessee and became an executive assistant to the head football coach at the University of Michigan. However, these days, Lara is involved in a different kind of football. As of 2024, she is employed as an account manager at Generation Adidas International. The Generations Adidas International “offers an exceptional range of International Youth Soccer Programs” to those eager to become a professional in the field, as per Next Generation International. While Lara’s career appears to be on an upward trajectory, it certainly wouldn’t come as a surprise if she ever returned to the NFL.
