The Buffalo Bills will face the Denver Broncos in the Divisional Round of the NFL playoffs on Saturday.
And Broncos fans believe Bills star quarterback Josh Allen could be facing some disloyalty within his own home.
Yes, online trolls have been spreading the rumor that Josh’s wife, Hailee Steinfeld, is a secret Broncos fan.
The rumor stems from a photo of Hailee that was taken in 2016 at Super Bowl 50 (it’s a very 2016 photo).
In the photo, she is seen wearing a Broncos Starter jacket and performing the “dab” celebration that was popular at the time (it’s a very 2016 photo).
“!!!!” Steinfeld captioned the photo.
Currently, Steinfeld and Allen are expecting their first child together.
In 2016, however, they had not even met. And Josh wasn’t yet playing in the NFL, meaning Hailee, a Los Angeles native, probably didn’t feel any special loyalty to the Buffalo Bills.
Still, Broncos fans were quick to try to create a controversy:
“HAAILEE DELETE THIS NOW!!!” a user People).
“She supports her Broncos in her heart, but represents the Bills because of her husband,” another added.
“Ayeeeee, this is a crazy find!!!” a third added, while a fourth wrote: “Well this is awkward for Josh Allen.”
CBS Sports reporter Tracy Wolfson tweeted that she asked Allen about the situation and he quickly laughed.
“He told me he had no idea he was floating,” Wolfson posted on X (formerly Twitter), according to People.
“He laughed and said he was probably paid to be there. And he definitely wasn’t going to bring it up at home,” Wolfson added.
Clearly, neither Josh nor Hailee are bothered by this situation. In fact, it probably doesn’t bother them much since they’re living the dream.
From his long-awaited role in the MCU to blowing away critics in sinnersHailee’s career is stronger than ever. And Josh is in the middle of another epic playoff run with the Bills.
Needless to say, fans were overjoyed when these talents came together to form a generational power couple.
Sources say Steinfeld attends most of Bill’s games (he had to miss last week’s wild card showdown in order to appear at the Golden Globes), but prefers to stay off camera and focus on the field.
Broncos fans might be hoping to distract Allen by asking him questions about his wife before Saturday’s big game.
But they may be giving him more motivation to go full Superman mode!
