Who we are

Faith-Centered. Athlete-Led. Community-Rooted.

TAP is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization built at the intersection of faith, athletic identity, and human wholeness. Inspired by the truth that professional football players — some of the most celebrated people on earth — are often profoundly unseen as whole human beings. The world sees a superstar. TAP sees a man of faith, a son, a father — someone who prays before every snap and knows exactly where his blessings come from.

We build community, media platforms, youth programs, and events that honor that truth.

Founding Voice

Tyler Allgeier

Arizona Cardinals · #22 · Running Back · BYU Cougar

A walk-on at BYU who became a legend — breaking the school's all-time single-season rushing record with 1,606 yards and earning Second-Team All-America honors in 2021. The fifth-round pick who outworked everyone. Four seasons in Atlanta, now bringing that same grit to Arizona. What drives Tyler isn't the highlight reel — it's the faith he carried from Fontana, California to every locker room he's ever entered.

Tyler's story is TAP's story: that God's purpose is bigger than any playbook.

"I was a walk-on who didn't have any guarantees. Every yard I got, every opportunity I had — I knew that wasn't me. That was God. TAP is about helping other athletes know that too."

Core values

What TAP will not compromise.

Faith-Centered

Prayer and Scripture are the foundation of every program TAP builds, not an afterthought.

Athlete-Led

Athletes like Tyler Allgeier shape TAP's voice and direction — this is peer testimony, not outside messaging.

Community-Rooted

TAP invests in Atlanta and the communities athletes come from, not just the platforms they play on.

Whole-Person Care

We honor the man of faith, the son, the father — the whole human being behind the stats.

Radical Stewardship

Every gift is directed back into faith huddles, media, camps, and Faith Fest.
