The Buffalo Bills are 3-0 after revamping their wide receiver room and spirits are high.
Star quarterback seems especially happy with the new group of people in the building after a tumultuous season with former Bill receiver Stefon Diggs.
According to ESPN’s official NFL Twitter account, after a blowout victory against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Monday night, Allen was asked about the Bills’ blazing hot start. He was upfront about the fun he’s having this season.
“It’s a fun and wonderful thing when you got a bunch of guys that don’t care about the stats.”

People were shocked Allen was so willing to take a shot at a former teammate and friend, but according to Pro Football Talk, Allen has clarified things.
“I know there’s a lot of people talking out there, again, I’m not trying to tear down anybody,” Allen said. “I’ve loved everybody that I’ve played with, and you don’t have to tear other people down to build each other up. And we’re building each other up right now and that’s all we’re trying to do and trying to stay together as a team. We’re really caring about each other and everybody in this building’s got that feeling.
“Yeah, and again, I love 14, I still do. But everyone wants to keep making this thing a thing. We’re so focused on what’s going on inside of our building and that’s the only thing we’re caring about right now.”
It’s good to know that Allen still has love for his friend, but it’ll be interesting to see how Diggs interprets the comments.
Diggs, now a member of the Houston Texans, looks to be headed to the playoffs as well, potentially putting the two on a collision course.
