Josh Allen’s Bills extension looks better again thanks to Justin Herbert

The extension the Buffalo Bills got Josh Allen to sign in 2022 continues to look better and better. The Los Angeles Chargers and Justin Herbert highlighted that once again.

Herbert inked a five-year, $262.5 million extension with the Bolts. He’s now the highest-paid player in the entire NFL.

In short time, Allen’s deal, which made him the second-highest paid player in the league when he signed it, has been moved down the chart.
