Jaguars’ Josh Allen, Childhood Steelers Fan, On Roethlisberger: ‘I Always Liked Ben, But I’m Ready To Hit Him’

The Pittsburgh Steelers will have a couple of Josh Allens to contend with down the stretch this year, both in very different environments. One is a quarterback whom they will have to face in cold-weather Buffalo. The other they are preparing to deal with down in Jacksonville when they are hosted by the Jaguars.

Rather than worry about him throwing the ball down their throat, it will be up to the offensive line to keep Jacksonville’s Allen off the throat of their own quarterback, Ben Roethlisberger, of whom he grew up a fan, as he told reporters on Thursday.
