Josh Allen named AFC Offensive Player of the Week after Week 14 comeback against Cincinnati

In the second quarter, down 11 points, Allen was in a fourth-and-four scenario from the Cincinnati 11-yard-line. Not giving up, he scanned for options, buying time away from the defense. As wide receiver Khalil Shakir backed into the end zone, Allen threw a superhero-esque pass, connecting with Shakir for the touchdown. Head coach Sean McDermott smiled in agreement on Monday, saying “audacity” was a great word to describe the play.

A successful two-point conversion to tight end Dawson Knox put Buffalo back within three of the Bengals.
