Professional career
Originally invited to the 2014 Major League Soccer Combine, Gibson was projected as a second round pick due to his vision and work ethic.[2] He was signed as a rookie to the Scorpions leading into the 2015 NASL season.[3] He quickly received playing time during the 2015 NASL Spring Season and ended the year starting 22 matches.
The Scorpions suspended operations following the 2015 NASL season and Gibson signed with expansion side Rayo OKC on January 26, 2016.[4]
Gibson captained Indy Eleven on his second debut for the club, a 2–1 defeat at Oakland Roots on March 9, 2024.[8] He scored his first goal in his second time with the Indianapolis-based club on July 5, in a 3–3 away draw against Rhode Island FC in the USL Championship.[9]
