The Buffalo Bills' season came to an all-too-familiar end with a disappointing loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championship.

Allen's contributions this season were undeniable, as he etched his name in NFL history by surpassing Russell Wilson for the most wins by a quarterback in their first seven seasons. Despite falling short in the playoffs, his leadership and skill proved once again why he remains one of the league’s elite. However, for the Bills to finally overcome their postseason hurdle, reinforcements on both sides of the ball will be essential—particularly on defense and at the offensive skill positions.
Although Allen won’t be competing in the Super Bowl this year, Steinfeld will still have a presence during the big game. The Bumblebee actress is set to make her Super Bowl commercial debut, partnering with Novartis to promote breast cancer risk awareness. "It was so important to me, the idea and just the honor alone of being involved and partnering with Novartis," she shared. "It’s going to reach so many people—just knowing that it’s so empowering to know your body and know your risk."
Steinfeld and Allen’s relationship has been a subject of fascination, particularly after their engagement in November 2024. The couple announced their big news through a touching Instagram post, capturing the romantic moment when Allen proposed under a floral arch with a breathtaking sunset in the background. The caption, "♾️ 11•22•24 ♾️," marked their special day.
