Buffalo’s favorite athlete is getting ready for a different kind of offseason this year, one that will find him healing from a broken bone in his foot and welcoming his first child with wife Hailee Steinfeld. On Thursday, January 29, 2026, Bills superstar Josh Allen opened up on his offseason plans, revealing that his perspective on his football legacy has shifted far beyond what happens on the football field. While he remains focused on bringing a Super Bowl to the city of Buffalo and the Bills Mafia, Allen confessed that he is most looking forward to the title of “Dad,” knowing that it will be the most important job of his life:
“I’ve known this from well in advance, I’ve got siblings that have kids, I’ve got a lot of friends that have kids and I don’t know if you can play too far in advance. I’m very much looking forward to that with my wife, becoming a dad. It’s something that I will take with great pride and we’re gonna have to figure things out on the go just like anything else."
