With the start of training camp now less than a week away, it should be no surprise that the conversation has shifted to rookie quarterback Josh Allen. In a recent interview with a group of Buffalo-area media, Brandon Beane and Sean McDermott spent some time answering questions about Allen, and their expectations leading into camp. As may be expected with a rookie quarterback from a relatively small conference, neither Beane or McDermott appear to be in a rush to have Allen start the 2018 season. Obviously it is way to early to make any judgments on the upcoming season, but you can find all of the details from the interview available in today’s edition of the Buffalo Bills Links.
