I don't know. There's the whole Hue throwing any and everyone under the bus angle to consider. He'd have probably wanted the rookie to earn the spot/pay his dues and sit behind the earth-moving RGIII (although it was actually Tyrod in 2018) . A la Chubb and Hyde. Allen might have developed similarly here, but he might not have. We were a mess.

When Trubisky signed with PIT he mentioned that the top thing he learned in Buffalo was to play loose. I feel like Hue was the opposite and harped on not making mistakes. I don't know if that would have been a fit for Allen. ...and then there was Freddie....
