Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen has played most of the campaign with a broken left hand, sources told Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

However, the 28-year-old is now fully healthy, having suffered the injury in Week 1 when he leaped into the end zone on a touchdown run.

Allen was on the injury report for the next 10 contests but never missed a game and was a full participant in practice ahead of Week 2.

The Wyoming product didn't let the injury slow him down, as he is considered the MVP front-runner heading into Sunday. He's tied for second in the NFL in total touchdowns and leads in quarterback rating.

Out of 35 signal-callers who've taken at least 250 snaps this season, Allen ranks first in EPA/play and third in success rate, according to Ben Baldwin's database. He's also thrown just five interceptions, a massive turnaround after throwing 18 in 2023.

Buffalo will face off against the New England Patriots on Sunday.
