Jordanna Barrett’s Father, Jeff Busch, Quit His Job After A Medical Leave

Beyond his glorious NFL career, former linebacker Shaquil Barrett‘s personal life is equally successful. The secret to his beautiful home life is his wife, Jordanna Busch Barrett, with whom he has six children.

The couple met during high school in 2010 and have stuck together ever since. After going through Jordanna’s Facebook, we discovered that the couple had pictures together, even with her family, from September 2010.

Soon, on February 2, 2012, Shaquil and Jordanna had a court marriage and began their journey of building a new life together. During that period, Jordanna had to juggle three jobs, along with supporting her husband’s athletic ambitions.

Finally, in 2014, Shaquil’s NFL career took off as the Denver Broncos signed Barrett to a three-year, $1.53 million contract that included a signing bonus of $3,500.

After stabilizing their life and career, the couple remarried in 2016, and .

As time passed by, Shaquil built a solid NFL career, while Jordanna ventured into social work and entrepreneurship. They welcomed four children: Shaquil Jr., Braylon, Aaliyah, and Allanah.

However, in 2026, the couple faced a big tragedy after losing their fifth child, Arrayah, who was just two years old, . It was an inconsolable loss to the Barrett family. Nonetheless, the couple announced that they are having their child, a daughter, in November 2026.

Besides being a loving wife and mother, Jordanna is also an independent woman. She is the founder of and Arrayah Hope Foundation.

While Jordanna is content with her married life, her parents are the backbone of her life. She was born on November 24, 1992, in Omaha, Nebraska, to parents Jeff and Angie Busch.

Her parents have shared many beautiful pictures of their time with Jordanna, her siblings, children, and Shaquil, flaunting how beautiful their family is.

, she has been the Executive Director of Missions at Christ For The City International Omaha since 2013. Moreover, she completed her education at Westmar University. She also volunteered and was a foster and special needs adoption trainer for 13 years.

Meanwhile, there is scarce information about Jeff Busch. But , it is mentioned that he is the Executive Director at a company called Pinkerton Place. This detail was very vague and does not confirm anything about his profession.

However, in a 2026 Facebook post, Jeff shared that he, too, had previously worked at Christ For The City International Omaha, but had to quit after taking a medical leave.

Hence, it is obvious that Jordanna inherited her parents’ love for philanthropy and giving back to the community. Now, she, too, has her own non-profit, where she helps needy kids in the foster care system, alongside her husband.
