Forget Hailee’s morning sickness, Josh Allen is vomiting mid-game: what happened to Bills’ QB against Patriots?

Playing at the top level of the game can take its toll on the body, as one quarterback may have shown.

Update:

Forget Hailee’s morning sickness - which, I should mention, I don’t know if she has – Josh Allen was the one getting sick on Sunday night, and somehow still dragging the Bills to a wild win.

Buffalo’s 35–31 comeback over the Patriots in Week 15 already had plenty of chaos baked in. New England raced out to a stunning 21–0 lead, TreVeyon Henderson on fire, and the Bills were wobbling. Then, right in the middle of it all, the cameras caught Allen on the sideline doing something quarterbacks usually try to hide: throwing up.

The commentator delicately described the scene as Allen “going through it,” but there was no mystery once the broadcast zoomed in. The reigning MVP was visibly vomiting between drives, instantly sending social media into meltdown mode.

And then he went right back to work.

Allen showed zero lingering effects, calmly leading Buffalo down the field moments later and setting up James Cook’s go-ahead touchdown.

Was Allen sick? There’s no indication he was dealing with an illness, and this wasn’t a mid-game ritual either. More likely, it was a perfect storm of cold weather, heavy contact and adrenaline overload.

Whatever the cause, the result was pure Josh Allen: puke, rally, win. Maybe he’ll spill the beans in the post-match chats. Actually, maybe better he doesn’t.
