Lands with Buffalo The Bills agreed to terms with Allen on Wednesday, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports.

Impact One of Josh Allen's best friends, Kyle will slide in as the favorite for No. 2 duties in Buffalo with Case Keenum signing in Houston. The 27-year-old Allen has made 19 career starts in the NFL, completing 62.6 percent of his passes with 26 touchdowns and 21 interceptions.

Texans improve, but come up short as skid reaches 9 games

Another healthy scratch Allen (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Chiefs.

Impact For a second consecutive contest, Allen will don street clothes while the duo of Davis Mills and Jeff Driskel are slated to split quarterback reps for the Texans. Considering the team was able to keep the game close Week 14 at Dallas before an eventual 27-23 loss, coach Lovie Smith may continue to roll with this breakdown of signal-callers for the rest of the campaign. In any case, Allen has just three more chances to make an appearance before the offseason begins.

Texans play better but can't finish in loss to Cowboys

The Houston Texans did a lot of good things Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys

Plummets to third on depth chart Allen (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

Impact Allen will go from starting the Texans' past two games to falling all the way to third on the depth chart this week, as Davis Mills will get the nod under center while practice-squad call-up Jeff Driskel serves as his backup. During his two-game run in the starting lineup, Allen completed 46 of 78 pass attempts for two touchdowns and four interceptions while also losing a fumble as the Texans suffered double-digit losses to the Dolphins and Browns.

Returns to backup role Allen is set to return to a backup role for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, after head coach Lovie Smith said Wednesday that Davis Mills will reclaim starting quarterback duties...

Impact After Mills led the Texans to 1-8-1 record through the team's first 10 games, he was benched ahead of Week 12 in favor of Allen. The change at quarterback didn't yield desirable results, as Allen completed 46 of 78 pass attempts for 416 yards, with two touchdowns and four picks during his two-week stint as starter, which featured double-digit losses to the Dolphins and Browns. With Smith handing the offense back over to Mills, Allen seems unlikely to see extended action this season unless the former succumbs to an injury.

Texans go back to Mills at QB after 2 bad games by Allen

The Houston Texans will return to Davis Mills at quarterback against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday, two weeks after he was benched for Kyle Allen

DECEMBER 7, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Set to return to No. 2 role The Texans plan to bench Allen and appoint Davis Mills to the starting quarterback role for Sunday's game in Dallas, leagues sources tell Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston.

Impact Mills opened the season as the Texans' starter before being benched after guiding Houston to a 1-8-1 record through the first 11 weeks. Houston was hopeful that Allen might provide a slight upgrade under center, but he was unable to even meet the low bar that Mills had set; he completed 59 percent of his throws for 5.3 yards per attempt, two touchdowns and four interceptions the past two games in double-digit losses to the Dolphins and Browns. Head coach Lovie Smith thus appears set to give Mills another look as the starter, though the Texans may not confirm as much until later in the week.

Allen's terrible performance dooms Texans in loss to Browns

It’s unclear what would get Houston’s embarrassing passing game going

DECEMBER 5, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Poor in loss to Browns Allen completed 20 of 39 passes for 201 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in Sunday's 27-14 loss to the Browns.

Impact Allen made his second consecutive start for the Texans, and he turned in another unimpressive performance. He averaged only 5.2 yards per attempt, a mark that is even poorer than it appears when considering that Allen accounted for 75 yards and his lone touchdown in garbage time on Houston's final offensive possession. It's unclear whether Allen will make it through the rest of the season as the team's starter, but he has not shown any ability to improve its offensive performance.
