In a stunning display of loyalty and friendship, Buffalo Bills offensive lineman Dion Dawkins has cemented his bond with quarterback Josh Allen—literally. Dawkins revealed a tattoo of Allen inked on his leg, showcasing the star QB diving through snow for a touchdown.
Yes, it’s real. The tattoo captures a defining moment from December 2024 when Allen etched his name into NFL history against the San Francisco 49ers. During that unforgettable game, Allen became the first quarterback in the Super Bowl era to score a passing, rushing, and receiving touchdown in a single matchup.
The highlight? A jaw-dropping receiving touchdown resulting from a creative trick play. Amari Cooper tossed the ball back to Allen, who then dashed toward the end zone and dove for the pylon—sealing a historic moment that’s now immortalized on Dawkins’ leg.
“Protecting him on the field wasn’t enough,” Dawkins quipped to his teammates. “Now he’s got a permanent home on my leg.”
The friendship between Dawkins and Allen has long been a cornerstone of the Bills’ locker room chemistry. Earlier this year, Dawkins even had the honor of presenting Allen with his NFL MVP award—a gesture that reflected their close bond. But this tattoo takes their camaraderie to unprecedented levels.
Allen’s December wasn’t just memorable on the field. Just days before that legendary performance, he proposed to actress Hailee Steinfeld in a romantic, rose-filled engagement, making the month one for the books.
Between Allen’s historic NFL feat, his personal milestone, and Dawkins’ heartfelt tribute, it’s clear that the Buffalo Bills aren’t just building a football team—they’re building a family. One touchdown, and one tattoo, at a time.
