In 2016, Allen threw for 3,203 passing yards, 28 touchdowns, and 15 interceptions. The controversial quarterback is known for his sharp accuracy when throwing the ball.
Allen is more than just a passing quarterback; he’s also dangerous with his feet. The former Cowboy ran for 523 rushing yards and seven touchdowns in 2016. A quarterback that’s good with his feet is a plus, and that’s what the Buffalo Bills hope to see from him.
