Some had and still might be wondering why the Bills have opted to keep Kyle Allen as the main backup option to starting quarterback Josh Allen.
While the Bills could have looked for an outside upgrade, and reportedly did via Trey Lance, noted NFL quarterbacks coach Jordan Palmer said it makes sense to him why the Bills decided to keep their QB room all Allen.
Palmer has famously worked out with numerous quarterbacks that are now in the NFL during their offseasons. Two of them? Josh Allen and Kyle Allen.
Palmer said from his vantage point, he believes in Kyle Allen as a player. In addition, he compared the relationship the two Bills QBs have to a person one he had.
Jordan Palmer previously backed up his brother Carson Palmer. In that scenario, hre said he’d never ever want his brother to get hurt or play poorly… naturally.
But that’s what Palmer sees in the Bills’ duo.
“You have a similar dynamic here. Kyle’s also just a huge fan of his buddy,” Palmer said.
