4. Josh Allen

A player is only as good as his body allows him to be. In Josh Allen’s case, his body is not ready to let him back out onto the field. The Buffalo Bills play on Monday Night Football this week, but it won’t matter for Allen as he continues to sit out due to his elbow injury.

The Bills clearly need Allen, as they are struggling with both, Nathan Peterman and Derek Anderson pretty much fighting over who can make more mistakes and generate a ton of turnovers. It’s not like Josh Allen was perfect, but he got the job done for the most part when he was in.

He’s still got some time left to heal up, but the Bills are surely missing their rookie quarterback right now. At this point, we know they won’t be making a playoff appearance, but they will be in a good position moving beyond 2018.
