He played in the American Professional Football League (which became the National Football League in 1922) with the Canton Bulldogs, Cleveland Tigers, Washington Senators and the New York Brickley Giants. Brickley's New York Giants are not related to the modern-day New York Giants.[1] He also played for the independent Youngstown Patricians from 1917 until 1919.[2]

Gormley played college football at Catholic University of America, Georgetown University, Ursinus College and Villanova University. He later became the head coach of the Catholic Cardinals football team.
