On June 4, 2017, Gordon began recruit training with the Michigan State Police 133rd Trooper Recruit School. Gordon had just been cut by the Kansas City Chiefs and was "team hopping" in the National Football League when he found his second calling. Gordon stated, "I came to the realization that I just wasn't performing the way that I once was, So I said, 'What is another career that will allow me to have an impact, have influence on younger kids and also leave behind a positive legacy?' Instantly, state trooper — law enforcement — jumped into my mind. On November 30, 2017, Gordon completed Trooper Recruit School training and was assigned to the Michigan State Police Metro South Post."[7]
