In what might be his ultimate coming-out party of a season, there seems to be nothing that the Buffalo Bills’ Josh Allen can’t do well. Sure, he might be one of the two best players in pro football (next to his rival in Kansas City, Patrick Mahomes), and yeah, he might even be the MVP frontrunner.
But Allen is more than an incredible quarterback who might bring Western New York its first Super Bowl ever.
He’s also someone who can, miraculously, remember an elaborate handshake with seemingly every member of the starting Bills’ offense. Don’t believe me? Let this clip from NFL films show you that Allen has a photographic memory when it comes to bonding with his teammates as their leader:

Honestly, so much happens there in almost 30 seconds; it’s hard to keep track. From what I could tell, Allen’s handshake skill set ranges from a basic high to low movement to a pat down and formal greeting. If we just compare that to a regular non-professional athlete, like me, I don’t even remember what I had for breakfast this morning (or eggs? cereal?).
No wonder the Bills are the AFC’s predominant titan. Their superstar quarterback will truly, remember anything — even hilarious bonding handshakes with his teammates.
NFL fans were so impressed by Allen's capacity to remember so many different handshakes
