A photo of actress Hailee Steinfeld attending a Denver Broncos game has sparked playful speculation among fans about where her NFL loyalties truly lie.

As the wife of Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen, Steinfeld’s appearance caused a brief social media stir, one that Allen himself later addressed with characteristic humor.

The incident unfolded shortly after the Bills’ recent clash with the Broncos, adding another layer of light-hearted curiosity to an already dramatic NFL storyline.

Josh Allen laughs off viral Broncos photo

Josh Allen was quick to downplay the situation when asked about a viral image appearing to show Steinfeld at a Broncos-themed event.

“Asked Josh about this pic and he told me he had no idea it was floating around. Laughed and said she was probably paid to be there. And that he definitely wasn’t going to bring it up at home.”

The quarterback’s relaxed reaction eased the brief wave of fan chatter that spread across social media. The couple have largely kept their relationship private despite their public profiles, with Allen often steering focus back to football during media appearances.

His response to the photo, filled with amusement rather than frustration, was received warmly by Bills fans.
