According to the most recent update on the Buffalo Bills quarterback’s condition, Josh Allen’s catastrophic injury will terminate his career.

Josh Allen, the quarterback for the Buffalo Bills, had a hand injury during Sunday’s 34-28 victory over the Arizona Cardinals, which overshadowed his stellar play.

Allen, who played a key role in the Bills’ comeback win, hurt his left, non-throwing hand after a hard landing while scoring a fourth-quarter touchdown.

The injury occurred as Allen hurdled over Cardinals safety Budda Baker, only to be pushed by two defenders.

Despite the impact, Allen remained in the game with his hand heavily taped.

After the game, he reassured fans but indicated that more evaluations were necessary.

“Again, we’ll find out — I’m not quite sure,” Allen told reporters, via ESPN’s Alaina Getzenberg.

“I’m not a doctor. But just kind of landed on it, I guess.”

While Allen was uncertain about the injury’s severity, Dr. David Chao, a former NFL team physician, offered an optimistic assessment.

Chao, analyzing the play footage, said Allen was unlikely to have suffered a fracture, and the injury should not affect his availability going forward.

He landed with his right elbow on his left hand/wrist on the touchdown. There’s not gonna be a fracture. He’s gonna be fine. It’s his off-hand. No big deal,” Chao explained on his injury analysis website.

Reflecting on his decision to leap over BakerAllen admitted, “Second time, I knew it was Budda, and Budda’s a good player, and he’ll lay the boom on you, so I decided to go up and over, but probably can’t make a living doing that, but here we are.”
