Josh Allen’s Racist and Offensive Past Resurface amid Relationship with Hailee Steinfeld
“If I could go back in time, I would never have done this in a heartbeat.”
Josh Allen is a National Football League (NFL) quarterback for the Buffalo Bills.
He attended Wyoming and was a bowl game MVP before being taken seventh overall by the Bills in the 2018 NFL Draught. He was making headlights in his own right, but he made major news after it was revealed that he was dating Hailee Steinfeld.
Since then, fans and followers have dived deep into Allen’s history, especially his digital footprints. As a result, netizens found a series of racist tweets that Allen had tweeted in the past.
Such tweets exposing him as a racist have been surfacing around on the internet, especially on Reddit. Here is all we know about it.
Josh Allen’s racist tweets
Before Allen started dating Steinfeld, he was already exposed for his racist tweets. Back in 2018, Allen apologized early Thursday for inflammatory tweets, including multiple racist insults, that he tweeted in high school but resurfaced before he was drafted into the NFL.
Yahoo! Sports detected the messages, which are no longer available on his Twitter account, in April 2018. They included many posts that contained a racist slur directed at African Americans when he is White and had no right to use the slur.
For instance, In 2013, Allen tweeted, “If it ain’t white, it ain’t right!” He claimed that some of the racially offensive tweets were rap song lyrics and that others might have been made by his buddies.
He admitted to the tweets from 2012 and 2013 and apologized to ESPN. He claimed that if he could go back in time he would never have tweeted such racist tweets.
He claimed that he was young, a teenager, when he wrote those tweets. So he was not the same kind of person anymore once he grew up.

He said, “If I could go back in time, I would never have done this in a heartbeat.” “I’m not the type of person I was at 14 and 15 that I tweeted so recklessly. … I don’t want that to be the impression of who I am, because that is not me. I apologize for what I did,” he added.
He also claimed that his family was hurting as a result of his getting exposed and he had “never envisioned a day or night like this.”
His apology was accepted and Allen was drafted into the NFL. His tweets and racist past resurfaced once again when he started dating Steinfeld.
The screenshots of the tweets have been reposted on Reddit. Redditors discussed how Allen tweeted the N-word multiple times and joked about it.
In 2022, he allegedly said, “I don’t think it was anything terribly bad, but there was a couple of things and it blew up on Twitter, and I just thought my life was tumbling in front of me. I probably lost 10 pounds that day, from crying and throwing up and … So, I fit in my tux pretty good though. l looked good for the camera, ya know.”
Many were disgusted by Allen’s actions. They complained that he did not deserve to date Steinfeld and that the latter should break up with him.
“I also hated his response when asked about the tweets. He made it entirely about HIM and how upset HE was. I’m sure the Jewish people and Black people weren’t thrilled either Josh…” a Redditor wrote. “Honestly, it’s the doubling down for me. He had an opportunity to say something meaningful and show how he’s grown and changed but he instead showed that that is exactly who he is,” another commented.
Another wrote, “I heard someone on a podcast (someone whom I believe) say that Hailee is low-key MAGA, so this isn’t surprising to me.”
At the time of writing, neither Allen nor Steinfeld has commented on the resurfacing of racist tweets.
Josh Allen’s dating history with Hailee Steinfeld
Steinfeld and Allen are constantly in the public eye, but they have managed to keep their romance private.
The Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse star and the Buffalo Bills quarterback were first connected in May 2023, shortly after rumors surfaced that Allen had broken up with his longtime partner, Brittany Williams.
The New York Post said that Allen was spotted exiting a black SUV with Steinfeld nearby on May 25, 2023. He was then pictured with his arm over her back.
Only two days later, on May 27, 2023, Steinfeld and Allen were spotted again in New York, this time with two other individuals. Allen was dressed completely in black, while the actress wore a black minidress and high-heeled boots.
According to a source close to the actress, Steinfeld and Allen were officially dating. They told People that, the two had been hanging out for a few weeks and were a “cute couple.”
“It’s new, but they are having fun,” the source confirmed. While the couple have not acknowledged their relationship to date, they have been photographed on many dates, with Steinfeld even spending time with Allen’s mother.
Allen came on the Pardon My Take podcast in August 2023, and while he did not confirm or deny his connection with Steinfeld, he did not object to the hosts referring to her as his girlfriend. All in all, the couple are enjoying their dating life and are trying to keep it as private as possible.
Ben Potter, known as YouTube star Comicstorian, has sadly passed away.
His wife, Nathalie, confirmed the news of his death at the age of 40 as she wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter). Her message read, “Two days ago, on June 8th, my husband, Ben Potter, passed away in an unfortunate accident.”
“To many of you, he was Comicstorian, voicing stories from across multiple different mediums. To his loved ones, he was one of the best and most supportive individuals anyone could ask for. As a husband, a son, a brother, a friend, or even just a stranger, Ben was loving and genuine. He was someone who would listen and make time for his loved ones. He would do his best to make everyone laugh and make sure they were okay. He was our rock and he’d reassure his loved ones whenever they needed it.”
She further added, “He was my world and I need time to be with friends and family. I have so many things I need to figure out but firstly, I need to grieve. I ask that you respect my privacy as well as everyone else’s. Right now my priority is preserving everything he’s built and I don’t have any plans beyond that.”
On YouTube, Potter mostly created audio dramas of comic books on his Comicstorian account, regularly discussing the Marvel and DC Universes. He shared his last upload, titled “Why DC’s Reboots Beat Marvel,” just a day before his death.
