‘”All the great quarterbacks, they just have this … aura about them, this energy about them, that they’re able to lead grown men. And Josh is one of those guys, he does it in his own way,” the 33-year-old Miller said. “I’ve been around Peyton Manning, Matthew Stafford, and all of these great quarterbacks, and Josh is a great quarterback, too, and the sky’s the limit for him. Huge reason why I came here, I’m a huge believer in Josh Allen and what we’re doing with the Bills, and I wanted to be a part of it.”‘

Knox focused on football, not future

Bills Today | Why Chris Simms ranked Josh Allen as the best quarterback in the NFL
‘”He’s the most physically gifted quarterback in the game, too. To me, where he separates from [Patrick] Mahomes right now is he can play within the offense a little bit more consistently. Mahomes is already an all-time great, and I think Josh Allen is starting to go into that area too.”‘

Minicamp Observations: Gabe Davis looks at home as Bills’ No. 2 WR
‘“The dude just works,” Allen said last week. “He just works hard. He’s a great dude. Selfless. He’ll run the for the love of the game, routes where he knows he’s not getting the ball but he’s attracting a safety and allowing someone else to get open. When the play’s there to be made, he usually makes them and that’s in turn for his hard work and his resiliency of kind of his first two years in the league. And the dude just continues to make some plays and love the guy to death.”’
