Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen is one of the favorites for the 2024 NFL MVP award, but he's reportedly played with a broken hand since Week 1.
Allen suffered a fractured left hand after scoring a touchdown in Week 1 vs. the Arizona Cardinals, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported. However, the quarterback has missed no time since the injury. He was on the team's injury report until Week 12 as a precaution.
Allen's hand seems to be fine now that he is off the injury report, so it shouldn't be a concern as the Bills prepare for the postseason.
