The film follows Greg through the height of his career to when he lost everything--which pushed Greg to become a philanthropist. He founded Cover 3 Foundation, a charity with a mission to inspire and motivate youth to achieve their goals and conquer adversity. To reach, teach, and feed through nutritious meals, positive messages, and leadership that empowers youth with a mindset of success. The organization has also developed nutrition programs to help children understand topics from portion control to obesity to food insecurity. To date the Cover 3 Foundation has served over 3 million healthy meals and snacks to VA kids in after-school programs and summer programs through the Child and Adult Care Program (CACFP) & the Summer Feeding Service Program (SFSP).

Greg thought gaining a full athletic scholarship and being drafted to play in the NFL would be the pinnacle of success, but now he is amazed by what giving back to his hometown and surrounding communities has done for not only his spirit, but also helping him make the difficult transition of life after football. β€œWhen I finished my NFL Playing career and College Coaching Career, I wanted to come home to my community and make the difference in the lives of the children and help the people that had helped me. It’s the most important thing I can do, next to being a father”, said Greg Scott.
