Josh Allen, the quarterback for the Buffalo Bills, along with his fiancée, actress Hailee Steinfeld, received a lovely surprise ahead of the Bills’ impressive 31-7 victory over the Denver Broncos during the Wild Card round on Sunday.
This win propelled the Bills into the Divisional Round of the NFL Playoffs for the fifth year in a row.
Success Continues for Josh Allen
Leading up to the game, fans in Buffalo spotted a unique billboard honoring the couple’s recent engagement.
This billboard, created by Delaware North, a local food and hospitality service, showcased two playing cards—one representing Allen and the other Steinfeld—with the message, “THE QUEEN CITY HAS A NEW QUEEN. CONGRATULATIONS, JOSH AND HAILEE.”
The couple, who have maintained a low profile compared to other couples in the spotlight like Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift, publicly announced their engagement during the Bills’ bye week preceding Week 13.
Fans were thrilled by their shared Instagram post captioned “11*22*24,” celebrating their blossoming romance since it began in May 2023.
Steinfeld, recognized for her roles in Hawkeye and Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, has been a constant source of support for Allen, regularly attending several Bills games, including one in London last October.
Despite her demanding schedule in Hollywood, she continues to be a notable presence in Allen’s life during what has been a stellar season for him.
Throughout the regular season, the standout quarterback achieved 3,731 passing yards, 28 touchdowns, and six interceptions, in addition to rushing for 531 yards and scoring 12 touchdowns.
The announcement of the couple’s engagement adds a personal accomplishment to what is already an outstanding year for Allen, as he prepares to guide the Bills into the Divisional Round against Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens.
This upcoming matchup is highly anticipated, with both quarterbacks viewed as top candidates for this season’s MVP title.
As the Bills progress in the playoffs, the support from the Buffalo community for Allen and Steinfeld illustrates that they are cherished figures beyond the football field.
