Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen is among the players every year that looks forward to getting in a practice on their home turf during training camp, and showcasing "Bills Mafia" to his newer teammates in the locker room.
"Obviously the fans back in the stadium, back at Highmark, and we'll some of our new guys feel the energy and the excitement that's going to be in the air tomorrow. So hopefully Western New York and Buffalo packs that stadium, and we can show them some love," said Allen following Thursday's practice in Pittsford.
Over the last couple of years, Allen has been known to come out of the tunnel with a few tricks up his sleeve to get the fans riled up one way or another. The last two seasons saw Allen coming out with a red helmet and blue helmet that vary from the regular white Bills helmets.
Allen is not willing to show his hand just yet with what may come next for the fans on Friday.
