Bills to give rookie QB Josh Allen start Sunday against Bengals

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Buffalo Bills rookie quarterback Josh Allen will start Sunday's preseason game against the Cincinnati Bengals, the team announced Monday.

Allen's start comes after Nathan Peterman started the Bills' first preseason game and AJ McCarron started the team's second preseason game. The team has yet to name a starter for its regular-season opener against the Baltimore Ravens.

McCarron suffered a right shoulder injury during his start last Friday, but tests revealed he did not suffer a fractured collarbone, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Monday evening.
