Jordan, 29, played college football at Penn State and turned pro in 2009 as an undrafted free agent recruit of the Cleveland Browns.

He also hooked up with the Philadelphia Eagles and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers before finding his way to the Denver Broncos team.

Gabe and Jordan have two younger brothers in Zaccariah and Levi. The fourth boy plays college football for Baylor U.

Jordan was a Dean’s Lister and made the Academic All-Big Ten in his sophomore year with Penn State in 2006. He earned all-Big Ten honorable mention honors as a senior after catching 41 passes for 637 yards and six touchdowns.

Jordan, listed at 5-foot-11, chose Penn State over Bucknell which offered him to play football and basketball.
