ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Some of Josh Allen's flashiest highlights have been the result of risky decisions.

The Buffalo Bills quarterback's only touchdown in the 22-16 overtime loss to the New York Jets came on a throw to wide receiver Stefon Diggs in the back corner of the end zone as Allen ran 17.3 mph, the fastest speed on a touchdown pass since 2016, per NFL Next Gen Stats. Allen was just 0.7 yards from the sideline when he released the pass.

The score showcased Allen's skill set as a playmaker.
