There will be no more confusing these two.
Jacksonville Jaguars pass rusher Josh Allen has announced that he has changed his name to “Allen-Hines.”
Naturally, Hines-Allen was previously confused with Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen during certain conversations.
Per Jaguars Wire, the addition to Hines-Allen’s name is a nod to the maternal side of his family. The name extension runs in the family, too.
Hines-Allen’s sister, Myisha Hines-Allen, plays for the WNBA’s Washington Mystics. Additionally, sisters Kyra Hines-Allen played basketball at Cheyney University and LaTorri Hines-Allen played basketball at Virginia Tech and Towson.
The Jaguars team account appears to have added on that Hines-Allen will continue wear his name No. 41 jersey:
