Josh Allen put it into overdrive at practice on Monday in Orchard Park.
Fresh off a 33-6 loss to the Chicago Bears in his team’s preseason opener, Allen threw every pass at Buffalo’s next practice. However, that has nothing to do with the result.
Due to an injury to Shane Buechele and Mitchell Trubisky having an excused absence, Allen was the only available QB for the team.
That doesn’t happen very often. It’s also hard to imagine some other franchise quarterbacks in the NFL picking up the slack for his team like that. But this is Josh… and his teammates were not at all surprised by him stepping up in that way.
“That’s a tough guy,” receiver Curtis Samuel said.
“Josh is a dog,” wideout Khalil Shakir added.

The Bills usually have three QBs at practice. Some teams have four QBs. Today the Bills just had Josh Allen #BillsMafia @WKBW pic.twitter.com/nIwDbpqAJo
