UCLA adds former NFL quarterback Derek Carr to its football staff as a volunteer. The school announces that Carr joins coach Bob Chesney’s program in a special advisor capacity, a role that does not involve a paid coaching position.
Carr is a four-time Pro Bowl selection and a former starter known for his time in the NFL. After his professional career, he becomes part of UCLA’s coaching support group, providing experience and guidance to players and staff. The reporting notes the move as an additional high-profile football figure joining UCLA’s program without a standard full-time coaching contract.
Across the two outlets provided, the core details match: UCLA’s announcement, Carr’s volunteer status, and his function as a special advisor tied to Chesney. The coverage centers on the headline rationale of gaining an accomplished, recognizable former Pro Bowl quarterback for the staff.
