RG Gordon brings a physical, assignment-sound safety profile to UT Martin
RG Gordon is a 6-foot-1, 195-pound redshirt sophomore safety at UT Martin who arrives with a sturdy high-school résumé: 100 career tackles, 11 tackles for loss, 11 pass breakups, two interceptions, and two fumble recoveries, plus a reputation for not allowing a touchdown in man coverage as a varsity starter. He did not see game action in 2025, so the intrigue is projection—good frame, defensive versatility, and a playmaking background that suggests upside if he turns those prep traits into college-speed production. For a team, he looks like a developmental defensive back with special-teams value and a ceiling worth betting on.
