Tyler Allgeier's path to the NFL didn't start with a scholarship offer. He walked on at BYU, carrying his faith from Fontana, California, into a program that gave him a roster spot and little else guaranteed.

By the time he left BYU, Allgeier had broken the school's all-time single-season rushing record with 1,606 yards and earned Second-Team All-America honors in 2021. A fifth-round pick, he spent four seasons in Atlanta before continuing his career with the Arizona Cardinals, where he now wears #22 as a running back.
