Josh Allen Gets Honest About This Year's Bills Team
People were not sure what to expect from the Buffalo Bills this season. They fell to the Kansas City Chiefs yet again in last year's playoffs. They also had a lot of big losses during the offseason. But their biggest loss was their star wide receiver Stefon Diggs who they traded to the Houston Texans.
The Bills are rolling to start the season. They are undefeated with a record of 4-0 and Allen is playing like an MVP candidate. Allen attributed the Bills' players not caring about their individual stats, which some perceived as a shot at Diggs.
"That's the beauty of it when guys get to buy into this and really understand like I may not get the ball four or five times thrown to me a game but the one or two times I do, I'm going to have opportunities to be in the end zone," Allen said.
"It's a fun and wonderful thing when you got a bunch of guys that don't care about the stats, they don't care about the touchdowns."
Stefon Diggs Sounds Off After Bills Trade
There had been speculation that there was friction in the locker room between Allen and Diggs which also impacted their execution on the field. But following his departure from Buffalo, Diggs had nothing negative to say about Allen or the Bills.
"I feel like he was an intricate piece in my career," Diggs said.
"When I got to Buffalo, Josh was ... Josh is still my guy. He really embraced me, and kind of had the Southern hospitality. So for me, he embraced me, spent a lot of time, and I probably wouldn't be right here if it wasn't for him. I got a lot of love for that boy. Y'all give him a hug and a kiss for me."
