Josh Allen
Josh Allen is an NFL quarterback who stars for the Buffalo Bills. Though he entered the league as a first-round pick (No. 7 overall) out of Wyoming in the 2018 NFL Draft, the signal-caller didn’t experience immediate success. Instead, he struggled with his passing accuracy and tossed more interceptions (12) than touchdowns (10) during his rookie season in 2018.
Since then, his progression has left him brushing shoulders with the other elites at the position. With a powerful right arm and tank-like sturdiness when he attacks defenses on the ground, he’s developed into one of the NFL’s premier dual-threat options, carrying Buffalo to four consecutive seasons with double-digit wins, advancing as far as the AFC Conference Championship Game, and twice finishing in the top three of the league’s MVP voting.
