Windmon was a three-time Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week and two-time National Defensive Player of the Week while leading the nation with six forced fumbles in addition to collecting 10.5 tackles for loss and 5.5 sacks.
Prior to the 2021 NFL season, Jordan took part in the NFL Bill Walsh Diversity Coaching Fellowship program with the Arizona Cardinals.
He spent three seasons as the defensive line coach (2016-18) at John Ehret High School in New Orleans before founding his own training company, Brandon Jordan Trench Performance, in December 2018.
Jordan took a graduate assistant position at McKendree University in the spring of 2013, working with the tight ends and offensive line. Later that year in the fall of 2013, he moved to Austin Peay to serve as a graduate assistant, coaching the offensive line and tight ends.

He returned to the starting lineup for the 2008 season and helped the Miners win the Great Lakes Football Conference championship.
