Josh Allen Injury Update for Fantasy Football
As per the latest updates, scans on Josh Allen's shoulder were normal. He is still questionable to play in Week 7, but there is optimism that the quarterback has avoided a serious injury.
Barring any late setbacks, he should be able to play against the New England Patriots on Sunday. Allen, who often puts himself in dangerous situations due to reckless play, will hope to play safe going forward, as his team's chances of winning depend on him.
So far in six games this season, the Bills quarterback has thrown for 1,576 yards, 13 touchdowns, and six interceptions with a passer rating of 102.8. He has also rushed for 131 yards on 22 carries while scoring three rushing touchdowns.
Josh Allen Fantasy Football Outlook
Through the first six weeks, Josh Allen has scored the most points among quarterbacks in full PPR scoring leagues (138.1). The RotoBaller staff has him ranked as the #1 quarterback, and it's very likely that Allen will maintain this spot.
He will go against the Patriots next week, and so far in his career, he has excelled against them. In nine games against them, Allen has thrown for 1,988 yards, 16 touchdowns, and 7 interceptions, with a passer rating of 87.8. In his last three games against the Patriots, the Bills quarterback has thrown for eight touchdowns.
There will be no snowstorm that could affect the Bills this time around. As a result, there is a possibility that the Patriots might get blown out by the Bills in Week 7, with Allen having another great game.
