Josh Allen is currently one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL. Playing for the Buffalo Bills, 27-year-old Josh first made an impact with the University of Wyoming. Becoming a Bowl game MVP, Allen became a top-10 draft pick for the Buffalo Bills, going for the 7th pick in the 2018 NFL Draft.
In 2020, Josh enjoyed a breakout season of sorts as he led the Buffalo Bills to their first division title and playoff victory in 25 years. While he ultimately fell short in the AFC Championship Game, Allen etched his name into Buffalo history. Over the course of the season, the California native set the franchise record for single-season passing yards and touchdowns.
Furthermore, he also earned a Pro Bowl and second-team All-Pro honors. During his relatively short tenure, Allen has led Buffalo to four playoff appearances, three straight division titles, and four playoff victories. Moreover, he is a charismatic personality and just earned the honor of being named to the cover of the 2024 edition of Madden.
Josh Allen Height
Joshua Patrick Allen was born on May 21, 1996, in Firebaugh, California, about 40 miles away from Fresno. Josh Allen has a recorded height of 6 feet and 5 inches or 1.96 meters. This height is slightly more than the average height of quarterbacks in the NFL. As a result, it allows the strong-armed QB to throw long passes over defenders with relative ease. His larger size allows him to read plays even while taking hits and still make throws to receivers.
While his height may provide a slight advantage to Allen, it is not what has defined his game over the years. His immense strength has also led to a strong rushing game for the Bills QB, en route to the highest passer rating in a single postseason.
As he enters his 5th season, Allen remains among the league’s best and has among the highest odds to win league MVP.
