‘He got me to do it’ – Josh Allen reveals stunning secret after MVP favorite unleashes ‘snow angel’ and makes NFL history with Bills
Josh Allen is having the season of his life. Already one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL before the 2024 campaign began, the seven-year veteran has become the MVP favorite after a snow-filled victory on Sunday Night Football.

He completed 13-of-17 passes for 148 yards and two touchdowns while posting a near-perfect 141.3 rating. The fun was only beginning for the 6ft 5in and 237lb California native, who played his college ball at Wyoming and proved that he could win in the snow before becoming the No. 7 overall pick of the 2018 NFL Draft. Allen joined Buffalo head coach Sean McDermott in doing snow angels on the ground during a live TV interview after the Bills improved to 10-2 with a 35-10 home victory. “He’s the one that got me to do it,” said Allen, referring to his coach. “I’m not the biggest snow angel fan, because you get cold down there, my toes are freezing right now … but it was fun.” “Love it,” a fan tweeted. The Buffalo QB also revealed a secret that instantly made fantasy football owners smile across the internet. After being told that NBC announcer Cris Collinsworth “started” Allen in fantasy football this week, the MVP favorite couldn’t hold back his own grin. “I love that,” Allen said “So did I.” x@AJFeldmanTVAllen agreed to do a snow angel with his head coach[/caption] x@AJFeldmanTVAllen, left, and Buffalo’s Sean McDermott did snow angels on live TV[/caption] x@AJFeldmanTVAllen had to help his coach out of the snow[/caption] On a night when Buffalo clinched the AFC East and a playoff spot, Allen gained an edge on Baltimore’s Lamar Jackson in the MVP debate. While Saquon Barkley again put up big numbers as the Philadelphia Eagles knocked off Jackson and the Ravens, Allen again looked like the most valuable player in the NFL. He became the first QB in league history to throw a touchdown pass, run for a TD and catch a TD in the same game. He did it all while playing on a field that received almost 2 feet of snow. And while being a newly engaged QB. Allen, 28, proposed to actress and singer Hailey Steinfeld, who accepted his offer for marriage. “Felt good,” he said. “Felt free.” Allen has completed 64.6 percent of his passes this season for 2,691 yards, 20 touchdowns, five interceptions and 100.3 rating. Buffalo is trying to catch Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs (11-1) for the top spot in the AFC. Allen has never been better, and now Buffalo has the next five games to prepare for a playoff run that could end up in the Super Bowl in New Orleans. talkSPORT is your home of the NFL on UK radio, and you can stay up to date with all the latest from around the league via our dedicated ‘EndZone’ YouTube channel.
