Josh Allen

Speaking with NFL Network’s Judy Battista at the NFL’s Annual League Meeting earlier this week, Bills’ HC Sean McDermott expressed his desire to have QB Josh Allen run less in 2022.

Fantasy Impact

Allen, who has finished as the overall QB1 in back to back seasons, rushed 122 times for 763 yards and 6 touchdowns in 2021. If McDermott’s vision for Allen and the Bills’ offense comes to fruition, Allen’s run as the top quarterback in fantasy may come to an end in 2022. For perspective, in 2021, 28.5% of Allen’s fantasy points came from rushing yards and touchdowns. If he were to have his rushing yards and touchdowns cut in half, he would have finished as the QB5 in 2021. Allen will still likely be taken as the first quarterback off the board in fantasy drafts in 2022, but his rushing attempts will be something to monitor early in the season and if less attempts for Allen becomes a reality then he may be a sell high candidate in dynasty leagues.

Bills quarterback Josh Allen completed 27 of 37 passes for 329 yards and four touchdowns. He also led Buffalo in rushing as he logged 68 yards on 11 attempts.

Fantasy Impact

Allen was exceptional on Sunday night despite the Bills' loss. As of now, he looks like the consensus QB1 heading into the 2022 season.

Bills quarterback Josh Allen had a fantastic Wild Card performance, completing 21 of 25 passes for 308 yards, five touchdowns, and zero interceptions against the Patriots. He also added 66 yards on the ground.

Fantasy Impact

Folks who rostered Allen in DFS or playoff fantasy leagues woke up with an enormous grin on Sunday morning. The 25-year-old remains a top candidate to be the first quarterback taken in 2022 fantasy drafts.

Bills quarterback Josh Allen finished 24-for-45 with 239 passing yards and two touchdowns against the Jets on Sunday. He also rushed for an additional 63 yards as Buffalo clinched the AFC East title.

Fantasy Impact

Allen finished with 4,407 passing yards and 36 passing touchdowns, falling just shy of the marks he posted in 2020. However, he did rush much more this season, picking up 763 yards on the ground in 2021 compared to 421 last year. All in all, he'll rank as a high-end QB1 heading into 2022.

Bills quarterback Josh Allen completed just 11 of 26 passes for 120 yards and three interceptions against the Falcons on Sunday. However, he also added 81 rushing yards and two scores on the ground.

Fantasy Impact

This was the second game of the year in which Allen had zero passing touchdowns, but he overcame his errors by adding the two rushing scores. Fantasy managers should view him as a mid-to-high QB1 in Week 18 against the Jets.
