The Facts: GM Brandon Beane has no doubts about Allen as his franchise quarterback. But he does want to see Allen do more to protect himself on the field. "The only thing I'd get on to him is he's got too many bruises on him," Beane said, via the Rochester Democrat & Chronicle. "And we've got to work on taking less hits.
Diehards Line: That's the only reason I'm going to ever criticize Josh is just take less hits."
Allen had a career-high 124 rushing attempts in 2022, and he also took 33 sacks, the second-most in his career. Beane thinks that's something Allen can work on. ... Otherwise, the Bills still believe they have a wide-open Super Bowl window with the 26-year-old Allen under contract through 2028. But injuries to Allen could derail those plans, and Beane knows that keeping Allen healthy is a top priority.
