Bills armed for future: Allen inks 6-year, $258 million deal

Associated Press  

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — Bills quarterback Josh Allen can put behind all those who doubted his accuracy, his small-school pedigree, and the hundreds of rejection letters he received from college recruiters. “It’s surreal to be in this spot right now,” said Allen in securing a quarterback position in Buffalo that’s been unsettled since since Hall of Famer Jim Kelly retired 25 years ago. “They did this because they expect me to continue what I’m doing, and expect me to go win this team some championships.” The contract was signed a few days after general manager Brandon Beane said he wanted to get a deal done with the quarterback before the season or put talks off until next year so not to serve as a distraction. Diggs established immediate chemistry with Allen last year in becoming Buffalo’s first player to lead the NFL in yards receiving and catches. “I think Josh is changing that and I think we’re changing that.” McDermott joked his only fear was Allen getting hurt in practice before the deal was completed.
