In 2019, the Jacksonville Jaguars selected pass rusher Josh Allen out of Kentucky in the first round of the NFL draft. Since then, he has become one of the top pass rushers in the league, earning a spot in the Pro Bowl in 2021 after recording 17.5 sacks.
Now, Allen has reached an agreement to stay with the Jaguars, signing a five-year, $150 million contract with $88 million guaranteed. This deal solidifies his future with the team as they look to build a competitive team for the long term.
Allen’s performance on the field has made him one of the most valuable players on the Jaguars roster. After playing out his rookie deal and receiving the franchise tag last month, he now has secured his place in Jacksonville for years to come.
The specifics of Allen’s contract have not been disclosed, but it reflects the team’s commitment to keeping top talent on their roster. With Allen locked in, the Jaguars are positioning themselves to be competitive in the NFL for years to come.
