It’s time for the next generation of quarterbacks to take the torch from the recently retired group of Tom Brady, Ben Roethlisberger, Drew Brees, and Philip Rivers.
But Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, he’s still skeptical that one of those is actually retired for good he recently said on the AP Pro Football Podcast.
“I think it’s something that I’ve always wanted since a kid. The only thing I’ve ever wanted to do was play quarterback in the NFL. It’s rewarding in a sense to be talked about like that,” Allen said. “All I care about is winning football games no matter how I do it.”
“And I’ll believe the Tom Brady retirement when he’s not playing next year, the jury is still out,” Allen added.
Brady says he’s done with the football chapter of his life but it’s tough to believe when he looks younger today than his rookie season.
Allen and the Bills lost their final game against Brady who had more wins against Buffalo than any other team.
But, at least Brady didn’t win another Super Bowl in 2021.
Allen has already entrenched himself as a top-three quarterback in the league. If he has half the success of Brady, Allen will see his name next to Brady’s in the Hall of Fame.
