NFL fans have all said the same thing as Josh Allen suffered a bloody injury during the Bills playoff victory over the Broncos – that his broken nail was nothing for a guy as tough as him. 

Allen has reportedly played through a broken left hand for most of this season, with some blood under his right thumb not adding much to the Buffalo signal caller’s list of ailments. 

The Bills star could be seen bending his thumb multiple directions to see the extent of the injury. 

At the conclusion of the 31-7 Wild Card round blowout over Denver, Allen confirmed he is fine and it was just a little blood on his thumb.   

Allen is the frontrunner for NFL MVP alongside Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, with the two facing off in next week’s Divisional round.  

That did not stop some on social media with expressing their concerns for Allen.

‘I guess his hand-modelling career is over. It’s a good thing he can pick up a few extra bucks from his Bills’ side hustle…’ one NFL fan said. 

‘That’s nothin. Kiss it and make it better.’ 

‘A little piece of advice, fiancee Hailee Steinfeld: You don’t want to hold Josh’s hand right now. It will probably be more gross than lovey-dovey!!!’ 

‘Ouch, looks like Denver is cooked.’

The Broncos were indeed doomed with Allen’s play, even if nine of his fingers were at full strength. 

Allen finished the game 20-of-26 pᴀssing for 272 yards and two touchdowns. 

He was also pulled from the game in the fourth quarter in favor of Mitch Trubisky, not for injury concerns, but because of rest for a hopeful deep playoff run. 

Now Bills fans have to hope Allen gets the proper band-aid to stop the bleeding before next week’s home game with a spot in the conference championship on the line.
