The Buffalo Bills hit their first major bump in the road in Week Four, falling to the Baltimore Ravens 35-10 for their first loss of the season, dropping to 3-1 on the year.
At least one Bills player suffered major damage during the loss. Star quarterback Josh Allen was involved in one of the most brutal hits of the season. Allen was strip-sacked by linebacker Kyle Van Noy and lost his balance, only to be greeted by Travis Jones.
The 338-pound Jones crushed Allen with his shoulder and forearm, smashing the quarterback into the turf. Jones isn’t feeling apologetic about delivering the blow either.
On Wednesday, Jones was asked if he’s ever hit a quarterback quite so hard.
“No, I [haven’t]. That was fun,” Jones said, via Baltimore Beatdown.
If anything Jones says he wishes he hit him harder. He watched the video after the game and realized he slowed down before delivering the blow.
“Yeah, it was all over Twitter. I wish I could have hit him a little harder,” Jones said. “I did [slow up before the hit], yeah. I did a little bit.”
It was a tough day at the office for Josh Allen, but the Bills are still leading the AFC East and he’ll be looking forward to a potential chance for payback in the playoffs.
