“It’s extremely difficult,” Allen said while crying. “I feel like I let my teammates down tonight.”

He added: “Can’t win with five turnovers; I fumbled twice, threw two picks. When you shoot yourself in the foot like that, you don’t deserve to win football games.”

“I feel for my guy… he should be golfing right now,” one fan wrote.

“He puts his body through so much,” one added.

Allen has plenty of time to get ready for the 2026 season, at least. We’ll have to see if he can stay healthy.
