Especially after what happened with Tua Tagovailoa, not many were thinking that the Bills will allow Josh to play even if he is 99% fit. However, as it turns out, he has recovered well and is set to start against the Vikings.
Josh Allen, the Bills’ star quarterback, is slated to start today for Buffalo,” NFL Insider Ian Rapoport informed on Sunday morning. “My understanding is he was able to get out there. He was able to throw the ball. He was able to grip the football. Had no residual effects of that elbow sprain and they do not believe he is at risk of re-injuring that elbow,” Ian added.
Without a doubt, this will please the Bills fans as Allen is vital for the team’s playoff chances. Till now, he has thrown for 2,403 yards with as many as 19 touchdowns. Moreover, he has also ran for 392 yards and 4 TDs.
