The NFL announced Wednesday that Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen was named the AFC Offensive Player of the Week for his performance against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 13.
Allen completed 13-of-17 passes for 148 yards and two touchdowns in Buffalo’s 35-10 division-clinching victory over the 49ers on Sunday Night Football. Allen also had a rushing touchdown and a receiving touchdown, becoming the first NFL player to ever have a rushing touchdown, a passing touchdown, and a receiving touchdown in one game.
It also marked Allen’s 22nd career game with 2+ passing touchdowns and 1+ rushing touchdown, tying Cam Newton for the most such games in league history and it raised his career total touchdowns to 248, surpassing Jim Kelly (244) for the most in team history.
This is Allen’s second Offensive Player of the Week award this season and the 14th of his career.
