Josh Allen credits fiancée Hailee Steinfeld after soaring to NFL MVP favorite

Josh Allen's life is good on and off the field.

The Bills quarterback, who is a heavy favorite to win his first NFL MVP award, credited his fiancée, actress Hailee Steinfeld, with playing a big role in his success this season.

“She played a huge role,” Allen, 28, said. Associated Press. “Morale, support. When I get home, she's my biggest fan, my biggest supporter. She's just the best.”

The Pro Bowl quarterback lashed out at Steinfeld while responding to comments from Bills left tackle Dion Dawkins, explaining that Allen is happy to play because he's happy in his personal life.

“This means something,” Dawkins said of the couple's Nov. 22 engagement. “When you're in this world that we're in and there's a lot of people pulling you and a lot of ups and downs on the roller coaster, and when you have that one stable person that you can trust and go home to.” I think it's great to be able to go home and have a hug and laugh no matter what. And that's what I think.”

Allen didn't deny it.

Ms. Steinfeld previously spoke passionately about her proposal in the Beau Society newsletter.

“All the happy tears have barely dried,” she wrote. “Every time I tell this story, or look back at the pictures, or say, 'We're engaged,' or 'We're getting married,' I start crying.”

Their relationship is very private, but they were first photographed together in Manhattan in May 2023.

Allen has been virtually lights out ever since he asked the question.

Over the past three games, he has totaled 1,020 passing and rushing yards and 13 total touchdowns with no interceptions.
