Josh Allen sidelined as Christmas chaos approaches
Josh Allen, the Buffalo Bills’ star quarterback, is dealing with the aftermath of a foot injury sustained during a tense matchup against the Cleveland Browns on December 21. Despite pushing through the pain in the second half of that game, the lingering effects have become evident just two days later.
Practice Adjustments for the Holidays
In light of the upcoming Christmas holiday, the Bills modified their usual practice schedule. On Tuesday, Allen was marked as a non-participant during practice in Orchard Park. The injury occurred late in the first half when he fell awkwardly while attempting to avoid a safety, a moment that proved pivotal in the game.
Injury Updates and Team Outlook
Head coach Sean McDermott confirmed that Allen is among eight players unavailable for practice, raising concerns about the team’s prospects as they prepare to face the Philadelphia Eagles on December 28 at 4:25 p.m. ET. “No real changes. Today was just a chance to get around him a little bit and see how he’s feeling,” McDermott stated. “Obviously, sore. He’s not going to practice today. We’ll see how tomorrow goes.”
As the Bills gear up for this crucial contest, Allen’s status remains uncertain, adding an extra layer of intrigue to an already high-stakes matchup against a formidable opponent.
