Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen has been paying attention to the viral video Russell Wilson was involved in recently, and couldn’t help but have some fun with it in a recent jersey swap.
Allen and Wilson met after Saturday’s preseason game between the Bills and Denver Broncos and did a traditional postgame jersey swap. Eagle-eyed observers could not help but note that Allen had included the message “#LetsRide” on the jersey he was handing over to Wilson.

For the uninitiated, the meme started in June, when the Broncos posted a behind-the-scenes video of Wilson repeating the phrase while filming promos. That video became something of a running joke due to the various tones and inflections Wilson tried out while taping the video.
