Where to Watch Greater
Imagine you sacrificed everything for a single dream. You lived it. Breathed it. Pushed through every setback with nothing but grit and faith to keep you going—even when everyone else believed you'd fail.
That was Brandon Burlsworth.
Greater tells the remarkable true story of a young man who refused to let anyone else define his potential. Labeled too slow and too small for Division I football, Brandon walked on to the University of Arkansas team in 1994. Through tireless work and unshakable belief, he didn’t just make the team—he became one of the most respected players in college football and was drafted by the Indianapolis Colts.
But Greater is more than a sports movie. It’s about family, purpose, and the kind of character that inspires everyone around it. And now you can stream Greater on Angel!
From NFL Dreams to Heartbreaking Loss
Just days after reaching his dream of being drafted into the NFL, Brandon’s life was tragically cut short. Greater honors the legacy he left behind—on the field, in his family, and in the hearts of fans who still look to his story as a model of perseverance and integrity.
Featuring Neal McDonough as Brandon’s older brother, this powerful film explores both triumph and tragedy with honesty, warmth, and reverence.
