In 1994, Gedrick starred in the film The Force with Yasmine Bleeth and Kim Delaney. He starred in the first season of Steven Bochco's 1995 television series Murder One, which followed the trial of Gedrick's character, bad-boy actor Neil Avedon. His next major project was the three-hour TV film The Third Twin (1997), a thriller based on the best-selling 1996 novel by the British writer Ken Follett.
Gedrick next took roles in television series such as EZ Streets (1996), Falcone (2000), and The Beast (2001), none of which were major successes. In 1999, he guest starred on Ally McBeal as the "hot car wash guy". He also appeared in Mario Puzo's 1997 miniseries, The Last Don, and in its sequel, The Last Don II. Gedrick returned to television screens as Tom Turcotte in 2002's Boomtown. The series, which also starred Donnie Wahlberg and Neal McDonough, was a moderate success, but ratings plummeted – particularly after the second season altered the show’s format, and Boomtown was cancelled.

In 2011, he appeared in Necessary Roughness as Dr. J. D. Aldridge, a former graduate school professor and possible love interest for series lead Callie Thorne. He starred in the 2006 movie Hidden Places alongside Sydney Penney and Shirley Jones.
Gedrick was a member of the cast of the HBO series Luck, which ran for one season in 2012. Gedrick appears in a multi-episode arc playing the manager of a Miami-area gentlemen’s club that becomes linked to a high-profile murder case in season 7 of Dexter. Beginning in November 2012, Gedrick starred as Evan Farnsworth, a struggling professor at a prestigious Maine boarding school, in the Hallmark film The Wishing Tree.
In late 2012, Gedrick appeared on an episode of NBC's Grimm. In 2015, he had a season-long arc as serial killer Raynard Waits in the Amazon Prime original television series Bosch, along with a recurring role as Liam in The CW's 2012 series Beauty & the Beast. In 2016, Gedrick starred as estranged Det. Mark Hickman, Lt. Mike Tao's ex-partner, on Major Crimes.
