Before the game, fans in Buffalo noticed a special billboard celebrating the couple’s recent engagement.
The billboard, sponsored by Buffalo-based food service and hospitality company Delaware North, featured two playing cards, one for Allen and one for Steinfeld, alongside the message, “THE QUEEN CITY HAS A NEW QUEEN. CONGRATULATIONS, JOSH AND HAILEE.”
The couple, who have kept their relationship relatively private compared to other high-profile couples like Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift, announced their engagement during the Bills’ bye week leading up to Week 13.
The joint Instagram post, captioned ” 11*22*24 ,” delighted fans who have followed their romance since it began in May 2023.
Steinfeld, known for her roles in Hawkeye and Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, has supported Allen throughout the season, attending several Bills games, including one in London last October.
Despite her busy Hollywood schedule, she has been a visible part of Allen’s life during his MVP-caliber season.
The star quarterback threw for 3,731 yards, 28 touchdowns, and six interceptions during the regular season, while also rushing for 531 yards and 12 touchdowns.
The couple’s engagement announcement adds a personal highlight to an already stellar year for Allen, who will lead the Bills into the Divisional Round against Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens.
The matchup is highly anticipated, with both quarterbacks considered top contenders for this season’s MVP award.
As the Bills continue their playoff journey, fans in Buffalo have made it clear that their support extends beyond the field, embracing Allen and Steinfeld as a beloved power couple in their community.
