Former Buffalo Bills quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick recently sang the praises of current field general Josh Allen.
Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane received a slew of criticism after trading up to select then-controversial Wyoming quarterback Josh Allen in the first round of the 2018 NFL Draft, parting with considerable assets to select a player whom a number of draft analysts viewed as a red flag-riddled small school signal-caller with little hope of developing into a franchise centerpiece.
Fast forward to 2024, and Beane was right. About all of it. Allen has not only developed into one of the league’s most dynamic players, a wholly singular quarterback who is the only player in NFL history to total over 40 touchdowns in four consecutive seasons, but he is the epitome of what Buffalo fans have long-yearned for in a franchise player.
Fitzpatrick, who played for nine clubs throughout his 17-year career but has long described the Bills as his favorite, has taken a liking to Allen in recent years, the twothanks to their shared demeanors. Buffalo’s former quarterback sang the praises of its current signal-caller during a recent appearance on“I’ll say this, Josh Allen is the perfect quarterback for the Buffalo Bills, and it goes well beyond his playing ability,” Fitzpatrick said.
Fitzpatrick went on to talk about what a Super Bowl victory would mean for Buffalo fans, telling host Rich Eisen that it would be the realization of a lifelong desire for thousands of people. “People have been waiting their whole lifetime for this, and this is a generational thing,” Fitzpatrick said. “You’re not a Bills fan and then you move somewhere , your kids become Bills fans if you were a Bills fan. It doesn't matter where you live. It’s probably the most fun I have going through the airport every week, when I walk by a gate that says Buffalo or Rochester or I see somebody with a Bills hat on, they wear it all the time.
