Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen is set to play in Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles despite dealing with a foot injury.

Bills head coach Sean McDermott told WGR 550 that Allen is "trending in the right direction" and will be "ready to play."

Allen missed Tuesday's walkthrough practice with the injury, but told reporters he was planning on playing against the Eagles.

"Feels good. Feels good," Allen said of the injury. "Ready to go."

"They cleared him to go back and play," head coach Sean McDermott added. "Our medical staff does a great job with, if it's not safe for a player, they're not going to put him back out there. I trust them, and they gave a green light to go back out there."
