Six-Year, $258 Million Deal Makes Allen One of NFL's Highest-Paid
Quarterback Rewarded for Stellar 2020 Performance
Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen has signed a historic contract extension that will keep him with the team for the next six years. The deal, which was announced on August 6, 2021, is worth $258 million, making Allen one of the highest-paid players in the NFL.
Allen's extension comes after a breakout season in 2020, where he led the Bills to their first AFC East division title since 1993. He threw for 4,544 yards and 37 touchdowns, and ran for an additional 548 yards and 9 touchdowns. Allen's performance earned him a Pro Bowl selection and a spot on the All-Pro team.
The Bills' decision to extend Allen's contract reflects their belief in his potential as a franchise quarterback. Allen is just 25 years old and has shown tremendous growth and development since being drafted by Buffalo in 2018. The team is confident that he will continue to be a key part of their success for years to come.
Allen's contract extension is a major win for the Bills and their fans. It ensures that the team will have one of the NFL's most talented quarterbacks under center for the foreseeable future. With Allen leading the way, the Bills are poised to make another run at the Super Bowl in 2022 and beyond.
