The Buffalo Bills announced that they are monitoring Josh Allen after an elbow injury that he sustained in the game on Sunday against the Jets.  A report from the NFL Network indicated Allen would be limited in practice this week but would likely play on Sunday.  McDermott said the team hasn’t made any decision yet and the team will take it “one day at a time,” awaiting an evaluation from doctors.  The injury happened when Allen had his right arm hit and was stripped of the ball as he was trying to throw a pass.  Allen appeared to be wincing in pain, but then threw the ball 50 yards downfield two plays later.  The Bills return home to host the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday.
