After losing to Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game, Allen and his teammates went back to the lab, looking to bounce back from their brutal loss.
As the team works through OTAs, Allen had arguably the biggest side quest of his life.
Josh Allen had his wedding with actor and singer Hailee Steinfeld. The two are officially married after the Bills quarterback proposed in the midst of last season.
According to Rebecca Aizin at People, Josh Allen and Hailee Steinfeld were first seen together and confirmed dating in 2023.

Siakam keeps scoring
Indiana advances to the NBA Finals for the first time since 2000, beating New York 125-108 in Game 6 Imagn Images The Indiana Pacers, led by 31 points from Pascal Siakam, beat the New York Knicks in Game 6 to close out the Eastern Conference finals at home and advance to the NBA Finals for the first time since 2000. The Knicks kept the game close until the third quarter, when the Pacers' pressure on both ends began to swing the game. Indiana forced 18 New York turnovers, resulting in 34 points, and scored 25 points in transition. Tyrese Haliburton was quiet until the fourth quarter but scored 11 points late, finishing with 21 points and 14 assists. Indiana's role players stepped up as well. Thomas Bryant scored 11 points on 3-5 shooting, including 2-2 from 3, in 12 minutes while Obi Toppin scored 18 points off the bench, shooting 7-11 from the field. The Pacers did an excellent job on Jalen Brunson, holding him to 19 points on 8-18 shooting with five turnovers. Karl-Anthony Towns, battling through a knee injury, finished with 22 points and 14 rebounds. OG Anunoby helped New York hang around, scoring 24 points on 10-18 shooting. Game 1 of the NBA Finals is set for Thursday, June 5th at 8:30 p.m. ET in Oklahoma City.

Connect the terms Find the hidden link between sports terms Trevor Ruszkowski / Imagn After a quiet Game 5, Pascal Siakam is back to cooking against the Knicks. Indiana's forward has 16 points on 5-of-8 shooting, including 2-of-2 from 3. Even after makes by New York, Siakam is dashing the other way and getting easy buckets. Most fascinating thing about that half is that the Knicks' best player didn't have fouls and still only played 16 minutes in an elimination game ... and this from the coach renowned for running everyone into the ground! Tom Thibodeau's adjustment after Game 2 to realize he couldn't use a 6.5-man rotation at Indy's tempo isn't getting enough credit. Trevor Ruszkowski / Imagn Tyrese Haliburton has 16 points and 12 assists in the last game and a half. He had 32 and 15 in Game 4. Another big difference in the first half was from beyond the 3-point line. The Knicks are just 3-of-11 in 3-point attempts so far (27.3 percent). The Pacers, meanwhile, are shooting 8-of-15 from beyond the arc (53.3 percent). Justin Casterline / Getty Images) With Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns struggling a bit, Mikal Bridges and OG Anunoby have stepped up for New York. Anunoby has 14 points on 6-of-9 shooting, showing aggression getting to the rim. Bridges has 11 points on 4-of-5 shooting, including 1-of-1 from deep. New York is down four points at halftime despite Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns combining to shoot 7-of-20 from the field. Brunson has 10 points and four assists but also three turnovers while Towns has left a lot to be desired on defense. Towns still contributed eight points and seven boards. The Knicks need one, if not both, of their stars to get going in the second half. Gregory Shamus / Getty Images This game is so good so far. Choppy at times, but each team has showed some resiliency. Tension is palpable. After a relatively clean Game 5, the New York Knicks are again struggling with turnovers here in Game 6. The Knicks have 10 compared to five for the Indiana Pacers. That has given the Pacers numerous transition opportunities, and Indiana is outscoring New York 16-2 in points off turnovers at halftime. They call it a veer switch. It's when the guard begins by trailing his man in a pick-and-roll before abruptly veering into the path of the rolling big man's pocket pass. Andrew Nembhard executed one of the best veer switches I've ever seen to get the steal that led to Pascal Siakam's layup just before halftime. Andrew Nembhard has proven to everyone's satisfaction that his shooting in his last year's playoffs was an outlier. Tyrese Haliburton has 8 points and 6 assists at halftime of Game 6, matching his totals from all of Game 5. Trevor Ruszkowski / Imagn Halftime - Pacers 58, Knicks 54 OG Anunoby beats the buzzer, but the Knicks remain down four after a dramatic first half! Anunoby is having his best game of the series for the Knicks, but the Pacers appear to have rediscovered their lethal transition offense and used that to stay ahead every time the Knicks made a run in the second quarter. Andrew Nembhard has missed five of his six shot attempts outside of the paint. A rough time to not just go cold, but to lose confidence in his shot. Andrew Nembhard hesitated for a long time before missing that open 3. He's really struggling on offense, to the point where I don't think the Knicks mind having Jalen Brunson guard him. Gregory Shamus / Getty Images Andrew Nembhard hesitated for a long time before missing that open 3. He's really struggling on offense, to the point where I don't think the Knicks mind having Jalen Brunson guard him. Two things that will be sure to be on tape at halftime, one for each team: Pacers: getting beat on the baselines for corner shots off screens Knicks: getting beat by Pascal Siakam after made baskets Gregory Shamus / Getty Images Knicks didn't get back after a made Mikal Bridges shot. Pascal Siakam transition dunk. That is the definition of adding insult to injury. Pascal Siakam risks his loins and OG Anunoby gets two free throws out of it while Indiana is out of challenges for the night. With these two teams so evenly matched, neither team can afford to have any of its players have an off-night. Every possession counts is the cliché, but it's also true. So far tonight, Jalen Brunson and Karl-Anthony Towns are both struggling on offense, shooting a combined 5-of-18. It's even worse than that shooting number indicates, because, remember, that Brunson scored New York's first two baskets of the game and has been relatively quiet ever since then.

Bustling crowds and bus rides are part of the annual peony pilgrimage to Michigan
ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) — It's time to peek at the peak peonies. Visitors are making the annual pilgrimage to the University of Michigan this week to see -- and smell -- one of the world's premier collections of the garden plant, featuring showy red, white and pink blooms of countless shades and varieties. Melanie Millar and her friends visited the Ann Arbor school's Nichols Arboretum on Monday to take some graduation photos. The 18-year-old Millar is set to graduate from a Detroit-area high school in a matter of days. 'I'm here with my best friends — a bunch of girls. … We just came here to get pictures since it's going to be a nice day, and the Peony Garden seemed like a nice place to go to,' Millar said. The W.E. Upjohn Peony Garden features the largest collection of historic — pre-1950 — herbaceous peonies in North America, 'and likely the world,' curator David Michener said. 'Once you come here to the Peony Garden, you'll be mesmerized, and you'll understand why people love peonies,' he said. 'The fragrances, the colors, the forms, it's just intoxicating.' The peony watch is a spectator sport with tens of thousands of visitors arriving at The Arb each spring to behold the unique perennials -- so many that visitors have to be bused in. But there was a somber mood among some Monday. Vandals cut off the blooms of roughly 250 peonies a day earlier, the University of Michigan Division of Public Safety and Security said in a statement. Although no group or organization has taken credit for vandalizing the garden, some papers were left behind, DPSS said. One referenced the war in Gaza, saying: 'Palestinian lives deserve to be cared for. More than these flowers.' 'What would possess someone just to destroy nature and the beauty of it? It's just unfathomable,' visitor Linda J.K. Klenczar said Monday. 'There's no explanation. I don't know if they're going to catch someone who did this. They need to explain themselves.' It's a moving target each year as to when the peonies will reach peak bloom. And one of great interest – with scores of peony-watchers glued to the Arb's Instagram page for updates. 'What makes it so challenging to predict is they pay no attention to the calendar,' Michener said. 'They're driven totally by day and night temperatures.' The campus Peony Garden contains more than 300 historic cultivated varieties from the 19th and early 20th centuries, representing American, Canadian and European peonies of the era. The garden typically features up to 10,000 flowers at peak bloom. Their colorful blossoms draw admirers from Michigan and beyond, but the peonies' beauty is not their primary function. The garden is designed as a support mechanism for academia -- to be a research collection for students and faculty to explore genomics and social issues. Michener and his colleagues at Matthaei Botanical Gardens and Nichols Arboretum work closely with their sister garden in Minsk, the Central Botanical Garden of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus, trying to understand how ornamental peonies are related to each other and the wild, ancestral species. Michigan's Peony Garden is free to visit and open from sunrise to sunset. For those drawn to the ancient plant's scent, Michener said it's best to show up earlier in the day or later in the evening, when the fragrances are the best. 'It's very colorful. I have a lot of peonies in my backyard, so I have a spot for them. But they're a beautiful flower,' Millar said.
