As per reports, Josh Allen is expected to play against the Jets on Monday night. The quarterback has an unspecified status on the Bills' injury report but there are signs that he will be ready to lead the offense in Week 6.

Allen has been nursing injuries to his left hand and ankle. However, he was a full participant in all three practice sessions for the Bills ahead of their trip to New York.

Notably, Allen is set to play his 100th game for the Bills on Monday night. Buffalo drafted him in the first round in 2018 and he has been the leader of the team's offense ever since.

This season, Allen has completed 79 of 131 passes for 945 yards and thrown eight touchdowns. He has also rushed for two touchdowns and hasn't thrown an interception in five games either.

However, the Bills have lost their past two games, and Allen will want to quell Buffalo's losing run on Monday.
