Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen made his debut on the NFL Top 100 list earlier this year. The 24-year-old University of Wyoming graduate was ranked at #87 on the list after impressing in 2019. However, few could have predicted his rise to prominence this year.
The Californian football star is raising eyebrows across the league since Week One. Allen was instrumental as Sean McDermott’s Buffalo Bills beat Derek Carr-led Las Vegas Raiders last weekend. The young star threw for 288 yards and had two passing TDs as the Bills registered their fourth consecutive win of the 2020 NFL season.
