The Buffalo Bills have given Josh Allen tons of options. When accounting for them, Lee Smith probably wouldn’t make the list.
That’s why the New England Patriots forgot to cover the veteran tight end in the second quarter and Josh Allen found him for a 4-yard touchdown pass that gave the Bills a 17-9 lead after the PAT.
