Bills’ Josh Allen’s Week 18 injury status confirmed for Dolphins showdown
Will Josh Allen play in Week 18?
The Buffalo Bills finally got the Josh Allen injury report they were waiting for ahead of their key AFC East-determining meeting with the Maimi Dolphins in Week 18.
“#Bills coach Sean McDermott on QB Josh Allen, who has been a full participant in practice this week despite neck and right finger issues: “He’ll be ready to go Sunday night.’” NFL Network insider Tom Pelissero reported on Friday.
The news that the Bills will have their star QB for the Week 18 clash with the Dolphins is excellent for Buffalo, but the Josh Allen neck issue looks to be much ado about nothing heading into this must-win game. The signal-caller and the team have downplayed it throughout the week, so this recent update looks like it was always meant to come.
Bills playoff scenarios in Week 18
When the Bills and Dolphins go at it in Week 18, the AFC East title will be on the line. This is a very astonishing fact, given that Buffalo slipped to 6-6 just a month ago.
The Bills have a win-and-in scenario down in South Florida, but there are a few more paths for the team to get into the playoffs as well, although they will need some heavy help.
Josh Allen and company will get a Wild Card berth with a tie against their AFC East rivals. They can also get in with a loss if a couple other things happen. A Pittsburgh Steelers loss to the Baltimore Ravens, a Jacksonville Jaguars loss to the Tennesee Titans, or a draw in the Houston Texans-Indianapolis Colts game will all put the Bills in the postseason by the skin of their teeth.
