Bills Today | Josh Allen sends prayers out to Buffalo, previews Bengals matchup

QB Josh Allen joined Kyle Brandt’s The Basement podcast on Tuesday to discuss the Bills’ upcoming Monday night matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals and the team’s Christmas Eve spent in Chicago. The QB also sent his prayers out to those in Buffalo who were affected by the winter storm that struck the city just before the holiday.

Now that the Bengals-Bills matchup is just under a week away, Brandt asked Allen what about this game has him fired up. Allen responded with playing on Monday night and hopefully in nice weather, and playing against a talented Bengals team led by QB Joe Burrow for the first time.

“He’s (Burrow) a special talent, he really is,” Allen said. “We’re going to have our hands full. That’s a defense too, that’s playing lights out. They got a linebacker over there that I know pretty well, Logan Wilson, who’s one of the stud linebackers in the league … So, it’ll be fun to compete against him in real life instead of in practice back in Laramie.”
