Josh Allen Jersey Sales Prove The Bills Are New York’s Team [TWEET]
What jersey did you own as a kid? I had a Drew Bledsoe Bills jersey when he first came to Buffalo from the New England Patriots in 2002. It was the first jersey I owned and I still have it to this day.
When it comes to popular NFL jerseys nowadays, you think of players like Patrick Mahomes, Aaron Rodgers, Aaron Donald and Joe Burrow.
Josh Allen is another player who is absolutely a player who has high jersey sales. After all, he's taken the Buffalo Bills to three consecutive playoff appearances, back-to-back division titles, and one conference championship game.

Allen's also led one of the most high-octane offenses in the NFL over the past two seasons.
Allen's jersey sales are some of the best in the NFL, and in the State of New York, as evidence by this map that Darren Rovell shared from Lids.
It's not just Allen, either.
As you can see from the map, the most popular team jersey in New York is the Buffalo Bills, so that further validates Buffalo Bills fans in saying that the Bills are New York's only team!
Obviously, just for laughs there, but Allen is really blowing up into superstardom. It feels like the AFC Divisional Round game against the Kansas City Chiefs was his coming of age moment for the rest of the NFL, despite the loss. I know he was considered one of the best young quarterbacks in the NFL before that game, but after the game, he became one of the 2-3 best QB's in football. No question.
