Josh Allen looked human on Sunday against the Patriots after an injury scare and saw his stranglehold on the MVP award loosen up.
It would appear that the already ailing Allen suffered another injury in an up-and-down performance, with many concerned over the All-Pro playmaker’s health going forward.
Allen threw his lone interception late in the fourth quarter of a 24-21 win and was also seen shaking his right hand on the sideline in some clear discomfort after being hit on his elbow.
“Got a helmet to the funny bone. I went to throw the next one, and I had no feeling in the hand. Came out a little wobbly. It happens sometimes, but we move on,” Allen said after the game.
Much better view of the #Bills Josh Allen right elbow contusion injury. Can see the elbow hit the defender’s helmet. Cold temps aren’t helping anything. Hit the funny bone in laymen’s terms. pic.twitter.com/uYIK5XtnDC— Banged Up Bills (@BangedUpBills) December 23, 2024
Allen played arguably his worst game of the season in Week 16, throwing for just 154 yards and an interception while rushing for 30 yards.
The start quarterback has been banged up for most of the season, fracturing his left hand in Week 1.
Allen added that the harsh conditions in Buffalo made it harder to throw the ball, with the game being played in the mid-teens.

Allen saw his odds for NFL MVP decrease from -900 (90 percent chance) to -450 (81.82 percent chance) as money came in on Lamar Jackson after his dismantling of the Steelers on Saturday.
Buffalo now hosts the 3-11 Jets on Sunday before traveling to New England to close out the season in Week 18.
The Bills are two games back of the Chiefs for the AFC’s top seed and could secure the No. 2 seed — at worst — in the AFC with a win Sunday.
Buffalo would need to win out and have Kansas City lose both games to grab home-field advantage.
