Kyle Allen News
Buffalo Bills quarterbacks Kyle Allen and Matt Barkley have an open competition for the backup QB role in training camp, but Allen has displayed a clear higher level of ability through all of his repetitions in training camp than Barkley. It comes down to arm strength and decision-making, and Allen has shown a consistent ability to zip passes into tighter windows in the intermediate areas of the field. Barkley has shown some accuracy issues on his touch throws. If the separation of ability continues between the two signal-callers, it might not take much longer for Allen to get all of the second-team time in training camp as the backup behind Josh Allen entering the 2023 regular season.
The Buffalo Bills' backup quarterback job will be more of a competition in 2023 than it was this past year between Kyle Allen and Matt Barkley. Allen is the likeliest to win the job behind Josh Allen with the Bills successfully getting Barkley to the practice squad in past years. Kyle Allen, 27, has made 19 career starts in the NFL in his five seasons, with two coming last year for the Houston Texans. In 23 career games with the Panthers, Commanders and Texans, he has completed 62.6 percent of his passes for 4,734 yards, 26 touchdowns and 21 interceptions. Even if Kyle Allen is forced into starting duties at some point in 2023, he won't be anything more than a low-end QB2 play in superflex leagues.
The Buffalo Bills are signing former Houston Texans quarterback Kyle Allen to an undisclosed deal on Wednesday, according to a source. He has 19 career starts in the NFL and will now back up Josh Allen. The 27-year-old should be Josh's primary backup in his new home. He spent the 2022 season as a backup with the Texans and started in just two games, going 46-for-78 for 416 yards, two touchdowns and four interceptions. In his 19 career starts over five seasons with the Texans, Carolina Panthers and Washington Commanders, Kyle Allen has a 62.6% completion percentage, 4,734 yards, 26 touchdowns and 21 interceptions in 23 games played. He won't have any fantasy appeal unless Josh Allen misses time due to injury in 2023.
