Josh Allen had overcome obstacles throughout his football career, starting when he was a zero-star quarterback coming out of high school with no Division One offers. It would have been easy for Allen to avoid playing football in college and instead pursue something else with his life.

Allen became everything the Bills could have dreamed of. And now Allen is an MVP, beating out Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson to win his first NFL MVP award, which was given out at Thursday's NFL Honors show. He's the third Bills player to win the award, joining Thurman Thomas in 1991 and O.J. Simpson in 1973.
