Josh Allen staying with the Bills for six years, $330 million

[True Dough]

The Buffalo Bills and quarterback Josh Allen have reached agreement on a record-setting six-year, $330 million contract through the 2030 season that includes $250 million guaranteed, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Sunday.

It the largest guaranteed total ever given to an NFL player.

Allen, the NFL's MVP for 2024, became the first player in NFL history to record at least 25 touchdown passes, 10 touchdown runs and fewer than 10 interceptions in a season. He finished with 28 touchdown passes, 12 rushing touchdowns and 6 interceptions.

His 119.6 passer rating was the fourth highest in NFL history and trailed only Aaron Rodgers (122.5 in 2011 and 121.5 in 2020) and Manning (121.1 in 2004). Rodgers and Manning won MVP in those seasons.

1. Great signing

I heard years ago something I wasn’t aware of. The Lake Effect in Buffalo requires a powerful arm at QB. Ferguson had a good arm, Kelly had a cannon. Between then and Allen their record reflected it. OJ was a different era. Allen is their best chance to get to the next level.

2. Sounds kind of Erie

But Allen is a Superior QB, so he'll continue to thrive amid that geography.

3. Happy he's signed

He’ll get a ring(s) before he’s done. I think there’s an NFL rule that Buffalo can get to the Super Bowl but can’t win it. Josh will change that.
