Whether it's amateur golf tournaments, high school baseball, working on the farmland back in his hometown or launching 60-yard bombs on the gridiron, Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen can unsurprisingly do more from an athletic standpoint than the average human.

But after starting his offseason on the golf course, he's switching over to the batter's box, this time as a home run derby participant at teammate Micah Hyde's third-annual charity softball game on Sunday.

Safe to say the people in the parking lot outside of Sahlen Field in Buffalo are now well aware of Allen's incredible skills with the bat. He displayed natural ability as a right-handed hitter with a smooth swing, consistently sending home run balls to the left side of the diamond.

Take a look:

Still, this wasn't enough for Allen to take home the derby crown. Bills offensive tackle Spencer Brown pulled the "upset," per the team's Twitter account.

The defeat ends Allen's hopes at being a three-peat home run derby champion, as he won the past two from Hyde's event in 2021 and 2022.

The home run derby was a warmup of what turned into a thrilling finish in the actual softball game itself. The defense won for the third straight year, as Hyde hammered a game-winning grand slam to take home the 14-11 victory.

Despite another loss for the offense and a fall from grace as derby champ for Allen. the Bills came together for another cause greater than themselves.
