New York Giants quarterback Josh Allen currently plays in the National Football League with the Buffalo Bills, his current team (NFL). When he graduated from the University of Wyoming with a degree in football,
The Bills selected him seventh overall in the 2018 NFL Draft after he was awarded the most valuable player in a bowl game. During the 2020 campaign, Allen made significant strides forward.
Josh Allen grew up on a cotton plantation in the Central Valley of California, not far from Fresno. In addition to being the top scorer on his basketball team, he also played baseball and was the club’s best pitcher.
The NCAA Division I level did not provide a scholarship offer to Allen at any time. Even though he was offered the option to walk on at San Diego State, he turned it down since the school couldn’t guarantee that he would get any playing time on the field.
Reedley College’s Allen passed for 25 touchdowns and four interceptions while rushing for an average of 166 yards per game in 2014. Seventh in the 2014 rankings among California’s junior college quarterbacks, he threw 26 touchdown passes.
At 6’5″ and 210 pounds, his coaches predicted he’d be in line for a slew of Division I scholarship offers (1.96 m, 95 kg). Few colleges and universities responded to his email to every FBS head coach, offensive coordinator, defensive coordinator, and quarterback coach.
“Your kid is the only quarterback we are looking for,” Coach Craig Bohl told Allen’s father. After being denied entry by Fresno State, Allen chose Wyoming and enrolled before the 2015 season.
