Buffalo Bills sign Josh Allen to six-year, $258 million contract extension
The Buffalo Bills and franchise star Josh Allen have agreed to a six-year contract extension that will make him one of the highest-paid quarterbacks in NFL history.
Just over a week into training camp, days after reports the two sides weren’t making progress, the Bills announced a lucrative extension that will keep Allen in Buffalo through the 2028 NFL season.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the total value of the contract is worth $258 million and includes $150 million fully guaranteed over the life of the agreement.
It instantly surpasses the Dak Prescott contract, which the Dallas Cowboys star signed this offseason. The $150 million guaranteed is the highest figure in NFL history, even surpassing the total of the Patrick Mahomes contract.
With his new extension averaging $43 million per season, Allen becomes the second-highest-paid quarterback on an annual basis (Mahomes, $45 million). He is also the third NFL player with an average salary of $40-plus million.
Coming off an MVP-caliber season, Allen’s new deal will likely serve as a mark for Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson to surpass on his extension.

yes, now let fromm go, buffalo! you already have your back-up.
he’s a peacock, captain. you gotta let’em fly!
I shoulda been a quarterback.
uncle rico, is that you? 😉
Uncle Pecos?
I believe the size of the contract means Josh Allen will be hyper-criticized for mistakes he makes this season.
I think Allen is the best chance they have for a Super Bowl since Kelly. Good signing
Bills to the Super Bowl this year
No different than any huge contract. Mayfield and Jackson will soon follow. If Josh Allen wins one Super Bowl the money is worth it. I just want to see one in my lifetime. He’s the best chance the Bills have had since 1995.

I'd like to see the Bills win a Super Bowl, I believe they will get it done.
.......
We'll let them have this year, I agree.
Honestly I’d be happy for them to get one. Buffalo just doesn’t seem to be a real NY team
I know most here know it but Texans are shocked when I tell them it takes 9 hours to drive from Buffalo to NYC. They think NY is all concrete and skyscrapers. Western Nee York has rolling hills, dairy and grape farms. Beautiful. Not at all NYC. Still glad I left 35 years ago. 9 months of winter is a bit much to take. 😉

Oh the irony there would be if Buffalo finally makes it back to the SB only to face Tom Brady and his 32-3 career record against them.

Ohhhh poor Buffalo wouldn’t be able to handle 0-5 😂😂😂
I bet the number one Vegas prop bets would be over/under on how many silicone male appendages get thrown on field by Bills fans while Brady’s offense has the ball.
