Josh Allen Making An Impact at Buffalo Bills OTAs Despite Absence
Josh Allen Making An Impact at Buffalo Bills OTAs Despite Absence originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Josh Allen has had a killer past few months. First, Allen was named the NFL's Most Valuable Player - his first. Allen also tied the knot with his longtime superstar fiancé Hailee Steinfeld over the weekend. Advertisement Allen did not appear on Tuesday for the Bills' Phase 3 practice. It's unknown if Allen and Steinfeld are off on their honeymoon - that would obviously make sense - but the assumption is that the reigning MVP will be back in Orchard Park for mandatory minicamp June 10-12. As for Allen's teammates that were present at the California wedding, everybody seemed to be in attendance at practice despite Allen's absence, including backup quarterback Mitch Trubisky, who filled in as QB1 for practice. Trubisky, practice squad quarterback Shane Buechele, tight end Dawson Knox, right tackle Spencer Brown and left tackle Dion Dawkins were all spotted at both Allen's wedding and Bills' practice. Allen's impact was still felt on the team, despite his absence, according to offensive coordinator Joe Brady. Advertisement "What I love about Josh is his demeanor, his approach, his mindset — it is as impressive as it gets and it's infectious around the team," said Brady. Despite being named as the most valuable player in the NFL and inking a $330 million contract, Brady has not noticed a change in Allen's approach or demeanor. "When he walks in the building, you don't feel a guy that just won the MVP last year," said Brady. "You feel a guy that's hungry and is trying to figure out ways to get better. Embracing his new teammates and trying to get them on the same page as him. It's impressive." When Allen is present, he effectively acts as an additional coach on the Bills' staff while setting records on the field. Advertisement "Year after year, I'm having to do a little less because he's doing more. That's what's impressive about him as a leader," said Brady. Allen is the only man in NFL history to total 40+ touchdowns in five consecutive seasons, and he's hoping to reproduce that mark for a sixth consecutive season in 2025, but, more importantly, Allen wants to bring the Lombardi Trophy to Buffalo.

NFL Draft 2025 first-round grades: Live grades for every pick
NFL Draft 2025 first-round grades: Live grades for every pick Finally, finally, finally: It's NFL Draft time. The NFL calendar has three flagship days: the opening day of the regular season, Super Bowl Sunday and, of course, the first night of the NFL Draft. After a long (and, at times, silly) grind of an offseason, we have finally reached the first round of the NFL Draft. Dearest readers, let us rejoice. The 2025 NFL Draft is finally here. 2025 NFL DRAFT: Every team's biggest needs, from the Titans to the Eagles The NFL Draft is unique because it is effectively a sale of hope. It is football fans' official respite that things might, one day, be different for their teams. Nothing sells optimism quite like a young, doe-eyed prospect with the potential to take over a game. Grading these respective NFL Draft selections is by no means an exact science. A great or poor grade is nowhere close to a referendum on someone's capacity at the highest level of this sport. With all of that said, we come from an informed place with our first-round grades. They are our best estimate of a prospect's talent, fit with their new team and whether someone might have 'reached' a bit too much. We will hit a few home runs. We will also inevitably strike out in an embarrassing fashion. Full stop.
