EXCLUSIVE: Bills QB Josh Allen’s Girlfriend Hailee Steinfeld Shares Sad Note
The Buffalo Bills are riding a wave of momentum after edging out the Miami Dolphins 30-27 in a thrilling Week 9 matchup. Now, quarterback Josh Allen and his team aim to extend their win streak to five as they face off against the Indianapolis Colts at Lucas Oil Stadium on Sunday, November 10.
Allen’s girlfriend, actress Hailee Steinfeld, has been a frequent face in the stands at Bills games, but fans are wondering if she’ll be making the trip to cheer him on in Indianapolis. The Oscar-nominated actress recently opened up about feeling down in her latest newsletter, *Beau Society*, possibly hinting at her mood following the 2024 presidential election results. In the newsletter, Steinfeld shared, “After a week that felt like three(?), I’m in the mood to curl up on the couch under a weighted blanket with a bowl of popcorn and M&Ms to binge-watch a comfort show.”
To lift spirits, the 27-year-old actress recommended some comforting entertainment, including her favorite show this season, *Dancing with the Stars*, calling it a “reliable dopamine hit.” She also gave a shoutout to the animated series *Arcane*, suggesting it for those looking to dive into an emotionally rich story. Steinfeld herself stars as Vi in *Arcane*, a hit Netflix series based on the popular video game *League of Legends*.
For *Arcane* fans, the wait for new episodes is finally over. The series returned with the much-anticipated Act One of Season 2 on Saturday, November 9. Netflix will release the following acts weekly, with Act Two set for November 16 and Act Three for November 23, giving fans of the show a lot to look forward to this month.
Hailee Steinfeld Urged Followers to ‘Connect With Those Who Bring You Joy’
Hailee Steinfeld has been quietly sharing her reflections and encouragement following the recent presidential election, in which Donald Trump won over Vice President Kamala Harris. In the days after the election, Steinfeld reached out to her followers on Instagram, writing in her Stories on November 7, “Wherever you are, and whatever you’re feeling, remember to take a moment for yourself, find a bit of calm, and connect with those who bring you joy. We’re all in this together, and I’m sending much love your way. 🤍”
While Steinfeld hasn’t publicly endorsed any political candidates, she did interact with a post from fashion editor Joe Zee supporting Harris, though she later appeared to retract her like. Allen, in keeping with his typically private approach to personal matters, has also stayed clear of publicly endorsing any presidential candidate.
Beyond the political realm, Steinfeld’s messages often highlight her close connection with Allen and the Buffalo Bills fanbase, lovingly known as Bills Mafia. In a heartfelt newsletter entry from September, she reflected on the start of the NFL season, sharing how much it means to watch Allen, her “favorite person,” lead the Bills. “Football season is back which means a few things,” she wrote. “A) I get to watch my favorite person continue to make NFL history every week (go off 17).”
Steinfeld also touched on the unique energy of being part of Bills Mafia, describing the fans’ camaraderie and passion. “I had this whole vintage fashion issue written up before Sunday’s home opener, but I spent most of the game thinking about 1) how lucky I am to get a front-row seat to the magic that is JA17, the entire Bills team, and the stadium energy,” she wrote. “2) The people who make up Bills Mafia are second to none.”
As she navigates the highs and lows of both personal and public life, Steinfeld seems to find a special comfort in her role as both a supportive partner to Allen and a member of the Bills’ community. With the NFL season in full swing, fans can likely expect to see more of Steinfeld at games as she cheers on Allen and the Bills, both in person and through her online presence.
Bills QB Josh Allen Looks to Make Franchise History Against the Colts
For fans seeking a “dopamine hit,” as Hailee Steinfeld put it, all eyes will be on Josh Allen as he aims to continue his dominant season against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. With the potential to set a franchise milestone, Allen could surpass Bills legend Jim Kelly in total touchdowns. Currently tied with Kelly at 244, Allen needs just four touchdowns—a feat he’s already achieved twice this season—to claim the top spot in Bills history.
However, Allen’s path to the record won’t be easy. The Bills have been hit with injuries in their receiving corps, leaving Allen with a limited pool of targets. Key receiver Keon Coleman has been ruled out for Week 10, and Amari Cooper is questionable. In response, the Bills have elevated K.J. Hamler and Tyrell Shavers from the practice squad to provide additional options for Allen. To bolster depth, Buffalo also added wide receiver Jalen Virgil to their 53-man roster just a day prior to the game.
Despite these setbacks, Allen still has solid weapons at his disposal, including wideouts Khalil Shakir and Mack Hollins, as well as a reliable tight end duo in Dawson Knox and rookie Dalton Kincaid. Knox and Kincaid have been instrumental in the Bills’ offensive schemes, particularly in the red zone, where Allen’s passing and rushing abilities make him a dual-threat powerhouse.
The matchup against the Colts will be a test of Allen’s adaptability and the depth of Buffalo’s roster, as the quarterback will likely lean heavily on his remaining receivers and tight ends to sustain the Bills’ offense. Allen’s resilience and playmaking have long been central to Buffalo’s success, and his drive to break records—particularly one set by the legendary Jim Kelly—adds extra motivation for both him and Bills Mafia.
For fans like Steinfeld, who appreciate Allen’s ability to deliver thrilling performances, Sunday’s game could offer the boost they’re looking for as the Bills battle through injuries and continue their push for the playoffs.
