Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen has limped to the locker room with an apparent leg injury.
Late in the second quarter, Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen was injured on a sack at the goal line. He walked off the field gingerly and eventually walked to the locker room with no shoe as time expired in the half. After the sack, he was seen moving his foot back and forth, clearly working through something.
The Bills announced during halftime that QB1 had an x-ray and Allen was cleared to return.
How was Josh Allen injured against the Browns?
On 2nd and 1 at their own 22, Allen took the snap. With the pocket pushed, he started fading backwards, then turned and ran. He kept retreating, eventually turning back to the middle of the field. As he was between the tackle box, he was unable to throw away the ball. As he was falling, he went to his knee. He was able to keep the ball out of the end zone, and Buffalo was able to punt it after Allen completed a tush push.
At the end of this clip, you can see him working the right ankle.
Allen was attended to by several team trainers, and eventually walked to the locker room without his right shoe on with three seconds left.
The Bills’ backup quarterback is Mitch Trubisky, a former top draft pick with lots of experience in the NFL.
