Josh Allen Tears Up at Charity Before Reporting to Bills Training Camp

His new role as a father has reshaped his public priorities, signaling a focus on family, charity, long-term health.

Overview

  • A video that circulated from Allen’s May “117 Holes for Charity” event showed him getting emotional as he described how holding his newborn daughter changed his view of parents and families.
  • The golf fundraiser raised more than $775,000 this year and Allen made a personal donation of $117,000, helping the Patricia Allen Fund reach roughly $17 million raised since 2020.
  • Allen reported to Buffalo Bills training camp in Pittsford on Wednesday, July 29, and said he expects to rely on FaceTime and calls to stay connected with his wife, Hailee Steinfeld, and their daughter while practicing and preparing for the season.
  • Steinfeld is concurrently returning to public work as the face of Estée Lauder’s Glimmer fragrance and continuing music and film projects, which the couple and outlets frame as part of their balance between careers and new parenthood.
  • The Patricia Allen Fund supports Golisano Children’s Hospital in Buffalo, and Allen’s remarks and donations reflect a shift in his public mission toward supporting families in pediatric care as he juggles NFL goals and fatherhood.
