Josh Allen out for Bills vs Broncos? QB status confirmed for Divisional Round of 2026 playoffs

Josh Allen is dealing with three different injuries, and that has created a lot of uncertainty about his availability for the game between the Bills and the Broncos in the 2026 playoffs.

Josh Allen ended up absolutely banged up after the game between the Buffalo Bills and the Jacksonville Jaguars in the Wild Card round of the 2026 playoffs. Despite all those hits, the star quarterback led an impressive 27-24 win on the road.

Because of that, heading into the next game against the Denver Broncos in the Divisional Round, the QBโ€™s status has generated a lot of uncertainty. Without their star, the Bills would have very little chance of advancing against one of the NFLโ€™s best defenses.

Allen has a unique opportunity, as Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs did not qualify for the postseason. That appears to position them as favorites in a field with very little experience, as there are also no names like Lamar Jackson or Joe Burrow.
