The reporters asked Gordon about Jaquan Brisker being picked shortly after he was and how they can work together on the Bears. Additionally, they asked what he will do in order to earn a starting role.
“We started talking and we’ll build our relationship and it’ll be good for us to go back and forth. I’m gonna try to give my all and get a starting role on this team but I feel pretty prepared coming from Washington. With everything they taught me, I know that transition will carry over to the NFL.”
