While the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs are preparing for the Super Bowl, 30 other NFL teams are preparing to get there next year. Several teams have filled their head coaching vacancies and are assembling their staffs while other teams are in the process of improving their coordinators and clearing cap space for a massive salary cap increase.

In 2024 they made a similar move. $14,875,000 of Allen’s pay was converted into bonuses, bringing his salary down to $1,125,000. This restructure netted him a total of $60 million cash for the season while freeing up $16,700,000 in cap space.

Josh Allen could take plenty of satisfaction from a season in which he became the betting favorite for MVP and the Buffalo Bills defied the doubters who predicted a down year.
