The All-Star Athlete
From a toddler Jordan was athletic. He was always running, climbing, jumping, skating, or just throwing a basketball. He tried out his skills at baseball, soccer and basketball before settling on football. At the young age of seven Jordan had a burning desire to play football. When he approached his parents about playing little league football, although his dad had played collegiate football, they were not on board. Eventually at the age of eight, Jordan won his parent's approval to strap on the shoulder pads and helmet.
Fast forward from little league to middle school to high school to one college scholarship offer to play for the University of Alabama Birmingham (UAB), Jordan was setting records as a UAB Blazer when suddenly the football program was shutdown. He was blessed with the opportunity to become a highly sought-after college recruit. After talking on the phone for hours with highly respected coaches from top programs and visiting schools, he signed with Indiana University (IU). After playing with the Hoosiers for one season, he decided to enter the 2016 NFL draft.
On April 30, 2016, Jordan was drafted by the Chicago Bears. Since being drafted, he has set numerous records.
– Jordan is quietly making a name for himself in the NFL, as a philanthropist and an aspiring businessman.
