Josh Allen continues to do great things as a runner

Josh Allen has only played in eight games so far during his brief NFL career with the Buffalo Bills, but what he is doing with his scrambling ability is unprecedented in franchise history.

In only eight career games (seven starts), Allen has rushed 57 times for 389 yards (an average of 6.8 yards per rush) with a team-high four rushing touchdowns.

The University of Wyoming graduate has easily eclipsed Dennis Shaw’s old franchise record for rushing yards by a rookie quarterback (210, set in 1970). With a few more great rushing performances, Allen could threaten Tyrod Taylor’s franchise record for rushing yards in a season (580, in 2016).
