Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen completed 13 passes for 139 yards and one touchdown in the team's 31-10 victory over the Miami Dolphins on Thursday Night Football. An unfortunate game script led to Allen's worst fantasy performance since his rookie season. Allen threw the first touchdown of the game to running back James Cook, who scored the next two on the ground. One Buffalo pick-six later, Allen found his team up big and didn't need to throw. He didn't add anything on the ground either (two carries for two yards). Allen will return with a QB1 status ahead of a Week 3 matchup against Jacksonville a week from Monday.

Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen completed 13 of his 19 passes for 139 yards and a touchdown and ran twice for two yards in a 31-10 win over the Miami Dolphins in Week 2.

From TheHuddle

In Week 2, the Miami Dolphins will face their division rivals, the Buffalo Bills, on Thursday Night Football. The Dolphins are 2.5-point favorites, while the matchup has a 48-point implied total for the two teams. Miami's D held up well against Trevor Lawrence and the Jacksonville Jaguars last Sunday in their 20-17 victory. They allowed just 139 yards and a score through the air against the Jags, though they did let up 128 and a score on the ground. While Josh Allen might be missing his leading wide receivers from 2023, he still found a way to put up 271 total yards and four combined scores against the Cardinals. Miami's defense fared better in their second matchup (at home) against Buffalo in 2023, but they got gashed for 48 points in Week 4 when they took them on in Buffalo. The unit can be left on waivers and benches ahead of Week 2 as RotoBaller's DEF24.

There's no concern about the matchup for Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen (hand) in Week 2. The two-time Pro Bowler has passed for over 300 yards and scored multiple touchdowns in each of his last five matchups against the Miami Dolphins. The 45 rushing yards he's averaged in those contests is the cherry on top. Although he only threw for 232 yards in his season debut, Allen's four touchdowns confirm that the Buffalo scoring offense runs through the quarterback. Allen is dealing with an injury to his non-throwing hand, but he's been a full participant in practice this week. Allen belongs in starting lineups in every fantasy league.

Buffalo Bills CB Taron Johnson (forearm) and DE Dawuane Smoot (toe) did not practice on Wednesday, Sept. 11, and were ruled out for Week 2. In addition, DE Javon Solomon (oblique) was limited and is doubtful, and QB Josh Allen (hand), RB Ty Johnson (knee), TE Quintin Morris (shoulder) and QB Mitchell Trubisky (knee) practiced in full and were removed from the injury report.

From TheHuddle

Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen (hand) will play Thursday, Sept. 12, against the Miami Dolphins in Week 2.

Fantasy Spin: Allen was the QB1 after Week 1, and while there should be some concern about the short week, he's still a top-flight play.

From TheHuddle

In case fantasy managers were at all concerned, quarterback Josh Allen (left hand) was a full participant in Tuesday's walk-through. Head coach Sean McDermott had previously confirmed that Allen was cleared to practice and ultimately play in Thursday's upcoming game against the Miami Dolphins. Allen is an iron man and is no stranger to playing through injury. The good news is that his injury occurred to his non-throwing hand. While it may affect ball security, it should not affect Allen's ability to perform. Allen threw for 232 yards and two touchdowns while adding 39 rushing yards and two touchdowns in Week 1. He will look to build on those numbers in Week 2.

From RotoBaller

Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen (hand) practiced in full on Tuesday, Sept. 10.

Fantasy Spin: It appears Allen will be good to go for Thursday's AFC East showdown against the Miami Dolphins. The good news is the injury to his non-throwing hand, so his accuracy should not be compromised. While it is possible he could opt to run less to protect himself, it should not be enough to keep Allen from being anything other than an elite QB1 consideration in Week 2.

From TheHuddle

Bills' QB Josh Allen scored an impressive 34.50 fantasy points in Sunday's Week 1 win against the Cardinals. Allen threw for 232 yards on 18-of-23 with two touchdowns. It's the 1st time this season Allen scored at least 25 fantasy points in a game.

Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen (hand) fully participated in practice Monday, Sept. 9. The Bills did not hold a practice Monday, so this is an estimation.

Fantasy Spin: Allen has been cleared to play and should not have any limitations since it is his non-throwing hand. He is coming off a terrific Week 1 performance and should be a starting option in all fantasy leagues.

From TheHuddle

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said on Monday that quarterback Josh Allen (hand) has been cleared to practice this week and will play on Thursday Night Football in Week 2 against the division-rival Miami Dolphins. On his second rushing touchdown of the Week 1 win over the visiting Arizona Cardinals, Allen injured his left (non-throwing) hand after leaping a defender to cross the goal line. However, the 28-year-old dual-threat signal-caller said after Sunday's game that he thought he was "fine," although he was expected to undergo cautionary X-rays. Apparently the X-rays didn't show anything concerning and Allen will be good to go this week. In the Week 1 comeback win, it wasn't all pretty for Allen, but in the end he threw for two touchdowns and scored two with his legs. With Allen being good to go for Week 2, keep him locked in fantasy lineups as an elite QB1.

Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen (hand) has been cleared to play in Week 2 against the Miami Dolphins after hurting his non-throwing hand in Week 1, head coach Sean McDermott said Monday, Sept. 9.

Fantasy Spin: As long as Allen is healthy, he continues to prove he's the top quarterback in fantasy.

From TheHuddle

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen (hand) injured his left hand in the Week 1 victory over the visiting Arizona Cardinals on Sunday, although Allen isn't particularly worried about the injury. Allen injured his hand during his second rushing touchdown of the day in the fourth quarter when he had to leap over safety Budda baker at the goal line. His left hand and wrist were wrapped by athletic trainers on the sideline after the TD, and Allen played the rest of the game. Allen said afterward that his hand was "fine." It was expected that he would go for X-rays after the game, but the results of those tests haven't been revealed. The Bills have a quick turnaround on Thursday Night Football in Week 2 against the division-rival Miami Dolphins, but as long as X-rays don't reveal any kind of structural damage, Allen should be good to go as a must-start, high-end QB1 play in Week 2.

From RotoBaller

Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen (hand) suffered an injury to his non-throwing hand in Week 1 against the Arizona Cardinals. He re-entered the game after getting it taped up, and he finished the game, but he had X-rays afterwards to check it out. 'It's fine,' Allen said Sunday, Sept. 8. 'Again, we'll find out. I'm not quite sure. I'm not a doctor. But, just kind of landed on it, I guess.'

Fantasy Spin: Allen was apparently injured leaping into the end zone a rushing touchdown while hurdling a defender. It sounds like Allen should be OK, but with a short week, playing Thursday in Miami, it's worth paying close attention to. Mitchell Trubisky is the backup, but it sounds like Allen will be OK since it is a non-throwing hand injury.

From TheHuddle

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen (hand) was injured during Sunday's win over the Arizona Cardinals. The signal-caller injured his left hand. However, he didn't seem too concerned, although he will likely get an X-ray as a precaution. There should be an update on his health soon. But an injury to Allen's non-throwing hand won't necessarily keep him off the field when the Bills meet the Dolphins for Thursday Night Football. Still, if he can't suit up for that one, Mitchell Trubisky would likely take over under center.

From RotoBaller

Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen went 18-for-23 for 232 yards and two touchdowns against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 1. He also rushed for 39 yards and two touchdowns on nine carries during the game.

From TheHuddle

The Arizona Cardinals open the 2024 season against Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills. In 2023, the Cardinals allowed the second-most points in the league (455) and the third-most passing touchdowns (32). Arizona made no significant improvements in the offseason and PFF ranks each unit (defensive line, linebackers, secondary) dead last in the league. The Bills, on the other hand, feature one of the best quarterbacks in the league leading an offense that scored the fifth-most points in the league last year. Aside from likely yielding too many points to make them a viable D/ST option, Arizona also has no pass rush to speak of and with Allen's mobility, the Cardinals won't be making up any fantasy points via sacks. Any other D/ST will be a better option to start in Week 1.

From RotoBaller

There's little concern for the top quarterback in fantasy football in Week 1. Josh Allen, who finished as the QB1 in three of the last four seasons, will face off against the Arizona Cardinals at home. While the Cardinals' offense has improved from a year ago, the defense remains a work in progress. The roster is devoid of quality pass rushers. Allen should have all day to throw the football, letting his new receiving corps shake the secondary. He ranked second in clean pocket accuracy rating in 2023. Rookie Keon Coleman, Curtis Samuel, and Khalil Shakir are tasked with replacing Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis. Tight end Dalton Kincaid will also be heavily involved. There's no reason to shy away from Allen in Week 1.

From RotoBaller

The Buffalo Bills announced that quarterback Josh Allen, along with the team's other starters, will not play in Saturday's preseason finale against the Carolina Panthers. Head coach Sean McDermott originally planned to play his starters, but after the team saw multiple players suffer injuries over the weekend against the Pittsburgh Steelers, they are not taking any chances. Backup quarterback Mitchell Trubisky (knee), wide receivers Curtis Samuel (toe) and Marquez Valdes-Scantling (neck), and tight end Quintin Morris (shoulder) are all expected to miss multiple weeks.

From RotoBaller

The Buffalo Bills plan to play quarterback Josh Allen and the team's healthy starters for a quarter and half of Saturday's preseason game against the hosting Pittsburgh Steelers. The playing time could change depending on the weather, considering there is rain in the forecast at Acrisure Stadium on Saturday. Allen as well as the star and veteran players made a brief appearance in last week's preseason opener against the Chicago Bears, but weather permitting, it sounds like fantasy managers will get a more extensive look at Buffalo's first-team offense on Saturday against the Steelers. One of the top storylines to watch is how the Bills' receiving corps might shakes ou; third-year receiver Khalil Shakir, veteran wideout Curtis Samuel, and rookie second-rounder Keon Coleman have yet to separate much in terms of ADP this summer.
