Josh Allen enters 2026 NFL season amid performance praise and personal milestones

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen enters the 2026 NFL season following a strong performance that earned him the No. 2 spot on the NFL’s Top 100 Players list. Despite recent playoff losses, analyst Jordan Rodgers defended Allen, noting his high touchdown-to-interception ratio and suggesting that defensive shortcomings, rather than the quarterback, are the primary cause for the team's inability to secure a Super Bowl.

Off the field, Allen recently celebrated a personal milestone for his wife, Hailee Steinfeld. To mark the 100th issue of her newsletter, Beau Society, Allen shared a post on his Instagram Stories highlighting her new merchandise. The couple, who welcomed a daughter named Harper Haize this offseason, continue to support each other's professional endeavors.
