Watch: Lee Smith is TD machine for the Buffalo Bills

The Buffalo Bills have given Josh Allen tons of options. When accounting for them, Lee Smith probably wouldn’t make the list.

That’s why the New England Patriots forgot to cover the veteran tight end in the second quarter and Josh Allen found him for a 4-yard touchdown pass that gave the Bills a 17-9 lead after the PAT.

Smith has three catches this season for 8 yards and a pair of touchdowns.

On his career, which is in its second run with the Bills, Smith has 63 catches, 10 that have gone for touchdowns. Smith has 27 catches with the Bills, six that have gone for six points.

Bill Belichick liked what he saw of Smith in 2011. The tight end was drafted out of Marshall in the fifth round by the Patriots, 159th overall.
