Josh Allen was seen vomiting on the sideline during the Bills–Patriots game, and he later said that this is something that happens to him in most games and is not due to a serious illness.
What happened today
During the December 14 Bills road game against the New England Patriots, cameras showed Allen throwing up on the sideline while wearing a coat over his uniform. He returned to the field shortly afterward, continued playing effectively, and the Bills went on to win the game.
Allen’s own explanation
After the game, Allen explained in a media interview that vomiting during games “basically happens every game” for him and usually occurs if he has not thrown up enough before kickoff. He described it as a strange, routine physical response tied to nerves or a “weird feeling,” and emphasized that it is not related to any significant illness.
Context from past behavior
Allen has previously said in interviews that throwing up is part of his normal pregame routine, alongside listening to music and hydrating. Coverage of the Patriots game notes that while the exact trigger in this specific instance is uncertain, there was no indication of a serious medical problem, and he played at a high level despite the incident.
