The Buffalo Bills already were having quite the week, suffering defeats to Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots and Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers just six days apart. But their nightmare of a week may have gotten worse.
Quarterback Josh Allen did his postgame press conferences in a walking boot after nearly coming back against the Buccaneers in overtime Sunday.
According to Matt Parrino of Syracuse.com and Ari Meriov of Pro Football Focus, Allen said he was feeling “pretty sore” but didn’t think the injury was anything to worry about, considering he finished the game. He will undergo tests Monday.
During the game, Allen had his left ankle taped on the sidelines and reportedly had his left big toe checked out, too, according to Charean Williams of Pro Football Talk.
With the Bills falling all the way down to seventh in the AFC, any serious injury to Allen could be brutal for their playoff aspirations — especially as Buffalo looks ahead to a rematch against the Patriots among the four remaining games.
