Sources: Buffalo Bills, QB Josh Allen agree on 6-year, $253M extension, $150M guaranteed

The Buffalo Bills and quarterback Josh Allen have agreed on a six-year, $253 million contract extension, sources tell ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The deal includes $150 million in guaranteed money, sources say.

Allen earned a significant raise following a breakthrough season in which he set numerous franchise passing and scoring records in leading Buffalo to its first AFC East title since 1995 and its deepest playoff run in 27 years. Buffalo's season ended with a loss to Kansas City in the AFC Championship Game.

In doing so, the 25-year-old Allen solidified a position that had been unsettled in Buffalo since Hall of Famer Jim Kelly retired after the 1996 season.
