NFL teams seem to be in a race to break records by signing players to massive deals. Recently, Myles Garrett made headlines with his $165 million contract, the highest ever for a non-QB.
And now, the Bills’ Josh Allen has set another record by signing a huge $330 million contract. This deal makes him the highest-paid quarterback in the NFL right now.
The NFL 2025 offseason is just getting started, and Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen has signed a huge six-year contract worth $330 million. This deal includes $250 million in guaranteed money, making Allen the highest-paid player in NFL history.
Allen’s strong performance, leading the Bills to their fifth straight AFC East title and a deep playoff run, made this big contract expected. The Bills announced the big news on their Twitter, saying, “We’ve reached an agreement on a new deal with MVP QB Josh Allen that will keep him in Buffalo through 2030‼️”

Everyone knew Allen would get a big deal because of his MVP status, but not this big. This new deal beats the previous record set by Deshaun Watson, who got $230 million in guaranteed money. Allen’s contract is now worth $55 million per year, setting a new standard for future quarterbacks.
Fans react to Josh Allen’s NFL contract
This huge deal has taken the sports world by storm. Many people think it would have been perfect if Josh Allen had led the Bills to the Super Bowl last season. But since that hasn’t happened yet, some fans are questioning if this massive contract is really worth it—despite Allen’s MVP status.
Huge move for the Bills! Locking in Josh Allen through 2030 keeps their Super Bowl window wide open. With him leading the way, Buffalo is going to be a serious contender for years. Do you think they’ll finally get that ring soon?

Why overpay him? Jason Hurts is better than this guy

On the other hand, plenty of fans are thrilled that the Bills locked down their star player for the long term. It’s a big relief for those who see Allen as the team’s future and believe he’s the key to bringing home a championship.
Congrats Josh! Who’s he going to throw the ball to?
