This year’s off-season has seen a lot of roster changes. Organizations have been bolstering the way they’ve been building their teams, and each and every position is under review. Some organizations have started looking for different quarterback signings that will provide a failsafe. While they did make playoffs last season, the Bills might be doing the same with Josh Allen. There has been an interesting development for the Buffalo Bills.
As per NFL Insider, Ian Rapoport, the Bills have made some interesting moves to upscale their quarterback position. Furthermore, it’s a coincidence that the Bills have gone on to make such a move after Allen’s disappointing performance in the postseason.

While Allen was able to ensure that his team would make the playoffs, he wasn’t able to deliver during the postseason. While the quarterback had a good season with 35 touchdowns and a total of 4.283 passing yards, his playoff performance could’ve been better. In the AFC wild-card game, the QB had 2 interceptions and 3 fumbles.
Furthermore, in the Divisional round, he had zero touchdowns and 1 interception. Incidentally, the Bills lost that game and it cost them a berth in the AFC championship game. Furthermore, the Bills have made an interesting decision in their quarterback division, possibly to ensure some competition within the organization and a backup for Allen.

While fans might have dismissed Allen, it is still too early to make a call about his proficiency in the next season. Buffalo will have to wait and see if their main QB is able to perform better in the upcoming season.
