Josh Allen is one of the NFL’s biggest names for a variety of reasons.
At a listed 6-foot-5, 237 points, the Buffalo Bills quarterback is built like a Terminator. He’s got a cannon arm, and he’s an incredible athlete as a runner in the open field. (Note: He’s got some amusing audibles in his back pocket, too.) Last but certainly not least, Allen is a tenacious competitor who doesn’t shy away from anyone.
On Thursday night, Tampa Bay Buccaneers cornerback Jamel Dean got an amusing refresher of Allen’s mentality. When Allen started running in an early second-quarter touchdown, he saw Dean waiting near the goal line. Allen proceeded to coldly stare Dean down as he coasted across the plane while reaching the ball out.
Phew:

If you’re Dean, how do you possibly recover from that disrespect? I don’t know that he can, outside of an interception or direct tackle. Quarterbacks like Allen are simply so good that they’ll start taunting you when they especially understand you won’t have an apt response.
This was how Twitter reacted
Why would 35 not punish Allen here? https://t.co/TyTw1G60j3
