Video: Josh Allen Called NFL's Best QB over Patrick Mahomes by Dolphins' Jordan Poyer

Jordan Poyer is nothing if not a loyal teammate—even if he's no longer a teammate.

The Miami Dolphins safety, who played the previous seven seasons with the Buffalo Bills, called Bills quarterback Josh Allen the best in the NFL at Micah Hyde's charity softball game in Buffalo.

"Seven years out here, man," Poyer said Sunday. "I loved every moment of it. Thank you so much for allowing me to grow as a person, as a player. Teammates, coaches, everybody, man, I loved every moment of it. Sorry we couldn't get it done, but you've got the best quarterback in the league. I know that might go viral, but it's OK. I get to see y'all twice a year. I can't wait. You guys come down to Miami. I get to come back to Orchard Park one more time."

Of course, Poyer may be a little biased after spending more than a half-decade with Allen in the Bills locker room.

By any objective measure, Patrick Mahomes wears the crown as the NFL's best quarterback. He's won back-to-back Super Bowl MVPs and already has three Lombardi trophies on his mantle. The Bills have also lost to the Chiefs in three of the last four postseasons.

Buffalo released Poyer in March and he signed a one-year contract with the rival Dolphins, who have their own Pro Bowl quarterback in Tua Tagovailoa. Poyer's new Miami teammates will also likely raise their eyebrows as the safety's praise of Allen, particularly given the fact he'll be asked with stopping his former teammate next season.

That said, it's hard to imagine anyone having hard feelings about Poyer doing a little pandering to the Buffalo crowd during a softball game for charity.
