Bills' Allen: Wyoming jersey retirement 'a blessing'
"First off, I just want to say thank you for everybody coming out tonight. This is such an amazing honor, a huge blessing,"
"There's so many people that I can thank for this achievement. A lot of teammates here. Love you guys. Coach Bohl, coach [Brent Vigen], people that believed in me. The fans, and the support here in Wyoming. I'm so honored and blessed to represent this university and this beautiful state. I love you guys. Thank you. God bless. Go Pokes, and it will always suck to be a CSU Ram."
Josh Allen returned to Laramie, Wyoming, and had his No. 17 jersey retired at halftime, becoming the third athlete in school history with that honor. Family members Joel and Lavonne Allen and former coach Craig Bohl accompanied him on the field. A highlights video played before his name and number were unveiled on the stadium's middle deck. Allen thanked teammates, coaches Brent Vigen and Craig Bohl, fans, and the Wyoming community while expressing pride in representing the university and state. Allen spent time with the current team the night before. The Bills were on a bye after a loss to Houston.
