‘I can assure you, Liz, that Allen’s elbow was given no shortage of attention. It can be argued there is no more important body part in the entire organization than Allen’s throwing arm, so the Bills will do everything in their power to make sure they are keeping it as healthy as possible. As for the bloody elbow Allen had last week against Cincinnati, unless I’m mistaken that did not have anything to do with an injection and was rather the result of a cut or brush burn that is typical of playing on artificial turf. Both Allen and General Manager Brandon Beane said they do not believe surgery will be necessary this offseason, so all we can do is take them at their word on that. Allen did concede the injury impacted his throwing motion for a significant amount of time after he was hurt, so it’s fair to wonder if that resulted in a dip in velocity. You’re right that dropped passes were a problem. According to advanced stats kept at Pro Football Reference, the Bills had 38 drops this season, which ranked fourth most in the NFL.’
