During his college football career at Arizona State he played alongside future All-American and Dallas Cowboys linebacker, Bob Breunig. Together, they are viewed as the best linebacker tandem to ever play the position at ASU.

He collapsed while jogging in the desert outside Phoenix, Arizona. Gordon died about an hour later at a Phoenix hospital. His death was attributed to heart disease.
