The Buffalo Bills have yet to announce if Josh Allen will see any preseason game action, and the starting QB weighed in on the topic with the opener looming.
"Reps are always helpful," said Allen after Wednesday's practice in Pittsford as the Bills are scheduled to host theA few extra reps could be especially helpful this preseason considering the Bills dramatically overhauled their receiving corps over the past five months. Khalil Shakir, a 2022 fifth-round draft pick, is the lone roster member to have previously caught a pass from Allen in an NFL game.
As for whether or not Allen will get the opportunity to take live game reps with Valdes-Scantling against the Bears, or at anytime this preseason, remains an unknown.Last summer, Allen did not suit up for the preseason opener, but did see exhibition snaps on the road in Pittsburgh and Chicago. He went a combined 12-of-17 passing for 113 yards and rushed once for a six-yard loss.
"To get things rolling would be nice, but I understand not getting out there, making sure we're being healthy and being protective. It's a double-edged sword anyway you look at it," said Allen. "If I'm asked to play, I'll play. If I'm told not to play, I won't play.""The competitive juices in me want to play, but I understand that Week 1, we still got some time," said Allen.
