Bills quarterback Josh Allen received medical clearance to start Thursday’s away game against the Miami Dolphins and is not expected to be limited this week in practice.

Allen received the green light after tests on his injured left hand, Bills coach Sean McDermott said Monday afternoon.

Asked if Allen could be limited later in the week because of his grip or any challenges with handing the ball off, McDermott said, “I don’t think so, he was able to do it.”

Allen accounted for four touchdowns to lead Buffalo to a 34-28 win in Week 1. He injured his left hand on a fourth-quarter leap into the end zone over Cardinals safety Budda Baker. Allen landed on his left hand with his right elbow and returned to the game with the hand taped.

The Dolphins (1-0) also rallied for a win on Sunday, beating Jacksonville 20-17 on a last-second field goal from Jason Sanders.

Allen was stellar against Miami last season with six touchdown passes, one rushing touchdown and 679 total passing yards.

Buffalo swept the series in 2023 to claim the AFC East division title with a 48-20 win at home and 21-14 victory in Week 18 at Miami.

Bills safety Taron Johnson is out Thursday night against Miami with a forearm injury. The team did not offer a timeline for his return because his injury requires “more research,” McDermott said.
