Josh Allen has been in the spotlight amid the Buffalo Bills' training camp. The quarterback will continue to lead the team's offense in the 2024 NFL season, but fans are curious to learn whether Allen will partake in the Bills' preseason games.
The Bills will host the Chicago Bears in their preseason opener on Saturday at Highmark Stadium and are expected to field most of their starters.
Will Josh Allen play today vs. Bears?
Josh Allen will play for the Bills in their preseason opener against the Bears on Saturday. Bills coach Sean McDermott spoke to reporters on Thursday and confirmed that Allen will be part of the team that faces Chicago. He also hinted at some of his new offensive players getting game time in the preseason opener.
“Yes, that includes Josh,” McDermott said. “There’s a number of new faces on our offense also, including his receiving corps and so some of that is baked into this. But the biggest thing is individually we’ve got to get ourselves ready to go and go from there.”
Allen finished the 2023 regular season with 4,306 yards and 29 touchdowns on 385 passes. He also rushed for 15 touchdowns, helping the Bills clinch the AFC East with an 11-6 record.
Allen and the Bills took down the Pittsburgh Steelers in the wild-card round but crashed out of the playoffs in the divisional round following a 27-24 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.
