Fan catches Josh Allen's stray pass, exits with football

Jason McIntyre categorized the Kansas City Chiefs and Washington Commanders in the 'For Now' tier of Super Bowl Contenders, along with the Buffalo Bills and San Francisco 49ers in the "for sure" tier.

During a game against the New England Patriots, a Buffalo Bills fan caught a ball thrown into the end zone by quarterback Josh Allen. The fan, wearing a Matt Milano jersey, quickly left his seat at Highmark Stadium and ran up the stairs, apparently aiming to exit. Despite broadcaster Mike Tirico's surprise, stadium ushers did not intervene as the fan left with the football. The next play saw Allen throwing a touchdown pass to Curtis Samuel, giving the Bills a 10-6 lead.

This incident is the second unusual occurrence involving Bills fans at Highmark Stadium this season. In a previous game, a fan made physical contact with Baltimore Ravens player DeAndre Hopkins during a touchdown celebration. In response, Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson pushed the fan, who was subsequently banned from Highmark Stadium and other NFL venues.

After the game against the Patriots, Allen jokingly criticized Bills fans for leaving early, referencing their previous comeback victory against the Ravens. The fan who left with the football on Sunday likely did not want to miss any action.
