‘Appearing on The Facility on FS1, Allen was asked if he was focused on winning an MVP award. The answer he gave makes him even easier to root for than he already was. “I think the only reason I would say yes is because that means we’re a playoff team,” Allen said. “If you ever talk about MVPs it’s because their team is probably the one or two seed.

The only thing I care about is raising a Lombardi Trophy here in Western New York.”‘
