LARAMIE — Two former University of Wyoming Cowboys found themselves on opposite sides of the field in Week 4 of the NFL season. Josh Allen and Carl Granderson went head-to-head as Buffalo hosted New Orleans, and both made their presence felt in the game.
Allen led the Bills to a 4-0 start with another strong outing, completing 16 of 22 passes for 209 yards with two touchdowns and one interception. He also rushed seven times for 45 yards and added a score on the ground. Granderson answered on defense, recording five tackles, one sack on Allen, two tackles for loss and a quarterback hit.
Through four weeks, Allen is 85-for-121 for 964 yards with seven touchdowns and just two interceptions. He’s rushed for 159 yards and three scores. Granderson, meanwhile, has 20 tackles, 4.5 sacks (tied for third in the NFL), six tackles for loss, two passes defended and five quarterback hits. The Bills host New England on “Sunday Night Football,” while the Saints look to rebound at home against the Giants in Week 5.
Here’s how the rest of the Wyoming alumni closed out the month of September:
