The Buffalo Bills and their fans believe they’ve found the quarterback of the future in Josh Allen, the team’s 2018 first-round selection. Naturally now that the Bills have picked up his fifth-year option for the 2022 season, talks turn to a long-term contract extension.
While general manager Brandon Beane and Allen have spoken of a desire to get a deal done this offseason, I still think that’s a long shot. Buffalo is close to the salary cap number in 2021 and with 2022 already guaranteed for both sides, I think it’s more likely something gets done next offseason.
