Houston Texans commentator John Harris took a weird shot at Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen during the team’s preseason game against the New York Giants on Saturday.

The Texans hosted the Giants for their third preseason game at NRG Stadium. Early in the first quarter, Houston quarterback CJ Stroud hit new Texan Stefon Diggs (Josh Allen’s former teammate) on a slant for a first down.

Harris proceeded to take a shot at the Buffalo signal-caller by stating that he wasn’t sure if Allen would be able to make that same throw to Diggs:

That was Diggs’ first catch with the Texans in preseason play. In April, Buffalo traded him to the AFC South club (along with two late-round picks) for a 2025 second-round draft selection.

Houston then restructured Diggs’ contract, allowing him to test free agency in 2025. As for Josh Allen’s Bills, the Diggs trade leaves them with a mammoth dead money charge of $31.1 million for 2024.

 

Diggs and Allen played together in Buffalo for four years, guiding the team to four straight AFC East division titles. After the Bills had to wait 25 years between playoff wins (1995 to 2020), Diggs and Allen led the franchise to five postseason victories.

But after reaching the 2020 AFC Championship Game, the Bills suffered three straight losses in the Divisional Round. Diggs’ inconsistent playoff prediction and strained relationship with teammates and coaches ultimately forced Buffalo to part ways with their superstar wideout.

Josh Allen Has A New-Look WR Corps For 2024

The Bills traded Diggs and watched deep threat Gabe Davis leave for the Jacksonville Jaguars in free agency. Allen’s new set of weapons features promising rookie Keon Coleman, former Carolina Panther and Washington Commander Curtis Samuel and two-time Super Bowl champion Marquez Valdes-Scantling.

Buffalo will kick off their 2024 season with a home contest against Kyler Murray and the Arizona Cardinals on Sept. 8.

Josh Allen is rocking a new look.

The Buffalo Bills quarterback showed up to training camp this week sporting a new look for the upcoming 2024 season. Allen was rocking a creepy-looking mustache and not much other facial hair.

The picture from camp shows Josh Allen rocking a Bills cap and a red jersey and holding a football.

Many fans took to the comment section, convinced that Allen was trying to look like Gardner Minshew, while others simply made jokes.

Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills have a tough year ahead of them after the organization traded star wide receiver Stefon Diggs this offseason to the Houston Texans.

The Bills have enjoyed years of going to the playoffs with Allen and Diggs on the team, which included division wins and a few playoff victories.

Now, Josh Allen has to work with a WR room that includes Keon Coleman, Chase Claypool, KJ Hamler, Khalil Shakir, and Marquez Valdes-Scantling.

Aside from Diggs, the team parted ways with Leonard Floyd, Jordan Poyer, Micah Hyde, Tre’Davious White, Mitch Morse, Gabe Davis, and Tim Settle, per CBS Sports.

Josh Allen Saw The Best Numbers Of His Career With Stefon Diggs On The Team

The Buffalo Bills had an interesting offseason for a team that has won 11-plus games and been to (at least) the divisional round of the playoffs for four straight years.

Josh Allen had to watch as Stefon Diggs got traded for not very much in return.

With Diggs on the team, Allen has thrown for 17,540 yards, 137 touchdowns, and 57 interceptions.

Without him, he has 5,163, 30 touchdowns, and 21 interceptions.

Allen started throwing for over 4,000 yards every year that Diggs was on the team compared to him barely reaching over 3K without him.
