The Buffalo Bills are gearing up for their AFC Wild Card Game clash with the Pittsburgh Steelers. However, it is not lost on them that nobody from this year’s squad made the 2023-24 Players’ All-Pro First Team. The Bills house some of the best talent in the NFL, including quarterback Josh Allen, wide receiver Stefon Diggs, safety Jordan Poyer, and linebacker Terrel Bernard. However, none made the NFLPA All-Pro First Team, a list of players voted on by the players themselves. When pressed about the list on Wednesday and the lack of Bills representation, Buffalo star quarterback Josh Allen had a simple two-word response. “Go Bills.”
