In late December, Allen confirmed reports that he broke a bone in his left non-throwing hand on a touchdown run during the fourth quarter of the season opener against the Arizona Cardinals. He remained on the official injury report through Week 11 and played the entire season while wearing a protective glove on his left hand.

Josh Allen could take plenty of satisfaction from a season in which he became the betting favorite for MVP and the Buffalo Bills defied the doubters who predicted a down year.

Allen coming up inches short on fourth down drew plenty of controversy, but it shouldn't even have come to that.
