Bills' Josh Allen: Expected to play Week 17

Coach Sean McDermott expects "a majority" of the Bills starters, including Allen, to play Week 17 against the Jets, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

Allen and the Bills are already locked in as the AFC's No. 5 playoff seed, so any playing time received by the starters is likely just a means of keeping the rust off ahead of the postseason. With that being said, backup quarterback Matt Barkley could get significant snaps during Week 17's matchup depending on how much Allen ends up playing.
