The year was 2018, and a promising young man had high hopes in his eyes during the most crucial junction in his life. After exhibiting stellar statistics in his college career of 1,812 yards, 16 touchdowns, and six interceptions in 2017, Josh Allen was one of the most competent prospects. And in a blink of an eye, his life overturned when he was selected seventh by the New York team in the 2018 NFL.
Cut to the present, the Buffalo Bills NFL star is considered one of the best quarterbacks in the current era. He amassed a massive fan following owing to his superior performance in every game.
In the latest update of his accomplishments, Allen was featured on the cover of Madden 24, one of the most decorated EA Sports video games. Allen responded to the honor by saying–
“I was extremely excited!”
“A little bit shocked. It’s such a surreal feeling. I don’t really know how to describe it. There’s only been X amount of guys who have ever graced the cover of Madden, and to be one of them and be in this small fraternity—especially the year after John Madden himself was on the cover—it’s a huge honor.”
“It’s a dream come true. As a kid playing Madden, learning all the rules and really learning football from it and having the memories of playing with my dad and brother as a young kid, it’s such a dream come true.”
With the debut of his glamor phase, Allen also enticed a considerable female following for his charming, rugged looks and sweet personality.
Naturally, this raised curiosity about whether the eligible bachelor has a love interest.
On May 29, 2023, a source confirmed to PEOPLE that Josh Allen is in a relationship with Oscar-nominated actress Hailee Steinfeld. The two were first spotted on a date on May 25. Prior to this, Allen was in a long-term relationship with childhood sweetheart Brittany Williams from 2017 to 2023.
Who Is Josh Allen Dating?
Josh Allen has been a pretty focused young athlete with only one goal on his mind– to get drafted into the NFL. However, he had one heartstring attached to his childhood friend and dated her during his teenage years.
Brittany Williams invited a shy Allen to her school dance, but the invitation took an unexpected turn. Williams said on The Morning After podcast–
“He was nervous and my friends were crazy.”
“He ghosted me for a year, but at the same time, I was like ‘OK I get it, things are just not in our timing right now,’ I knew it wasn’t meant to be.”
Willaims, a cheerleader for Kappa Kappa Gamma at Fresno State, suddenly received a message from an Allen, saying, “I messed up.”
The two began a relationship soon after, and Williams even followed Allen to New York after he was drafted. The couple went solid for about six years before they broke up in 2023.
But then Allen surprised the fans with an unpredictable crossover, never imagined by anyone. On May 25, 2023, Allen was seen accompanied by Hailee Steinfeld on a night out in New York.
This sparked dating rumors between the two, considering how adorable they looked together.
