Josh Allen leaves for one play but returns as Bills tie Texans 20-20

Josh Allen was left down on an incomplete third down after being hit hard, his ankle and head taking the brunt. He was cleared of a concussion, but was still in the tent when the Bills unexpectedly got the ball back.

Dawuane Smoot hit CJ Stroud’s arm as the quarterback tried to escape the pocket, and Dorian Williams recovered the fumble at the Houston 15.

Mitchell Trubisky came in for a play, a handoff, before Allen came out of the tent and got back into the game.

He threw two incompletions before Tyler Bass tied the game 20-20 with a 33-yard field goal with 3:18 left. The Bills scored 17 unanswered points.

Allen is now 9 of 27 for 131 yards and a touchdown with four carries for 54 yards.
