"My sister loves you. Can you please hug her or something?" the fan asked Allen as he pointed toward a group of autograph seekers. "She’s right over there in the bucket hat. She's literally crying."

Allen then made the young girl's day, giving her a hug before signing her jersey.
The Bills shared a video on Twitter showing the young girl’s reaction after meeting Allen.

"It feels like it’s been a long time since we’ve been able to actually go against each other and throw the football around and go full speed," Allen told reporters. "I know OTAs are kind of similar, but it’s not quite this."
