Allen got involved in a shoving match with Christian Wilkins, which then led to a full-on scuffle.<\/p>\n
The fight occurred with just over six minutes to play in the second quarter. With the Bills leading 17-3, Allen threw a deep interception to Xavien Howard. After Howard’s return, players on both teams started going at it a few yards away from where Howard was tackled.<\/p>\n
Replays showed the fight began after Allen and Wilkins engaged in a shoving match after the interception. During Howard’s return, Wilkins ran over to Allen and shoved him with one hand. Wilkins then turned around to prevent Allen from making a tackle during the return.<\/p>\n
Allen didn’t appreciate the push and fully shoved Wilkins with two hands. Wilkins turned around and the two engaged in a shoving match. Ultimately, other Bills players got involved and Wilkins and handful of other players ended up on the ground.<\/p>\n
Help arrived in the form of Bills center Mitch Morse. Wilkins and Morse got tangled up and both players eventually wound up on the ground with a crowd around them. Once Morse got involved, Allen walked away from the scuffle, hoping he wouldn’t get flagged.<\/p>\n
Allen succeeded there, but Morse wasn’t so lucky. Both he and Wilkins received unnecessary roughness penalties. Those offset, giving the Dolphins the ball at the 48-yard line.<\/p>\n
Miami capitalized on the turnover. Quarterback Skylar Thompson led an 8-play drive, which resulted in a field goal to make it a 17-6 game.<\/p>\n
Two drives later, Allen threw another interception, setting up the Dolphins with excellent field position. Thompson made Buffalo pay, throwing a touchdown to Mike Gesicki. The Dolphins then managed a 2-point conversion, tying things up 17-17 just before halftime.<\/p>\n
Buffalo then drove down the field and kicked a field goal, making 20-17 at halftime.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
