Josh Allen’s foot injury

One of the biggest storylines for this week will be around the foot injury that Josh Allen suffered against the Bucs. While Allen didn’t miss any snaps after the injury happened, he was in a walking boot after the game.

The good news is that on Monday, McDermott didn’t appear overly concerned and described the injury as ‘day-to-day’.

While it doesn’t appear that Josh Allen will miss this weekend’s game, it certainly is a possibility and one the Bills will need to prepare for. They have one of the better backup quarterbacks in the league in Mitchell Trubisky but he is not Josh Allen.

It is going to be interesting to see how the coaching staff balances the practice schedule at the position. They will need to try and get Josh Allen ready to play Sunday and this could mean limited practices or not even practicing at all. Meanwhile, making sure that Trubisky is ready to go if the need were to arise to turn to the backup quarterback.
