Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen and many of the team's other healthy starters will play approximately a quarter and a half in a preseason game against the host Pittsburgh Steelers on Saturday.

Bills coach Sean McDermott was none too pleased about his team's performance in its first preseason game, saying that it was not up to "our standard" in a 33-6 setback to the Chicago Bears.

Allen completed 2 of 3 passes for 22 yards and had one carry for seven yards in one quarter of action last Saturday. He was replaced by Mitchell Trubisky.

Buffalo wraps up its preseason against the Carolina Panthers on Aug. 24.
