Bills | Khalil Shakir lands long-term extension Tue Feb 25, 01:02 PM
Buffalo Bills WR Khalil Shakir agreed to a four-year contract extension worth up to $60.2 million - including $32 million guaranteed at signing - on Tuesday, Feb. 25.
| Footballguys view: Shakir is a favorite target of QB Josh Allen, so extending him (now through the 2029 season) makes sense. In 2024, Shakir led the team in catches and yardage. While mainly a no.2 receiver, Shakir gets volume targets from Allen and that makes him a weekly WR3/flex option for Fantasy GMs. |

Link to story Bills | Josh Allen named MVP Fri Feb 7, 09:59 AM
Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen named the 2024 Associated Press Most Valuable Player. He earned a $1.5 million bonus for winning the award.
| Footballguys view: Lamar Jackson was the first team all-pro quarterback, but in a small surprise, Allen edged him out for MVP. Some might see this as controversial, but the truth is that both players were deserving of both titles, so there's nothing to nitpick with the split that acknowledges the extremely high level of play both set last season. They'll be the top two quarterbacks off of the board in 2025 fantasy drafts. |

Link to story Bills | Extension possible for Josh Allen Thu Jan 30, 04:15 PM
Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen is currently under contract until after the 2028 season, but general manager Brandon Beane is not ruling out the possibility of signing Allen to a contract extension this offseason.
| Footballguys view: Allen has a cap hit of $43.2 million in 2025, and there is $96.8 million remaining in dead money. In 2026, Allen's cap hit skyrockets to almost $64 million, so the Bills could extend Allen with the idea of giving him more guaranteed money and dropping his annual cap hit to something a bit more manageable. |

Link to story Bills | Josh Allen Dealing With New Wrist Injury Heading Into Offseason Tue Jan 28, 11:33 AM
Bills quarterback Josh Allen revealed in his season-ending press conference on Monday that he suffered a new injury that could affect his availability for this week's Pro Bowl Games. Allen had his right hand wrapped during the news conference and said he didn't know if he'll participate later this week. "I got a little banged-up hand right now -- a wrist," Allen said. "So, I got to talk with docs right now and figure it out. But we'll see."
| Footballguys view: Allen, who said the injury was brand new, also noted during his news conference that while he doesn't anticipate any offseason procedures, he does plan to take some time just to let his body heal. "Got bumps and bruises from last night, took a few shots, and just trying to make sure that my body's in as good as condition as it can be -- giving maybe a week or two and just kind of getting back to work," Allen said of his plans. We'll watch for more, but assuming all is well, there's no reason Allen won't be viewed as a top-two fantasy asset at his position heading into 2025 drafts. |

Link to story Bills | Dalton Kincaid played through torn PCL? Mon Jan 27, 01:57 PM
Buffalo Bills TE Dalton Kincaid (knee) played through a torn PCL, fellow TE Dawson Knox told reporters Monday, Jan. 27.
| Footballguys view: In addition to playing through the PCL injury, Knox said Kincaid aggravated the other knee. "It's insane what he's played through," Knox said of his teammate. Kincaid had two catches for 13 yards in Sunday's AFC championship game. The second-year tight end missed three games during the regular season with an injury to his left knee suffered in Week 10 against the Indianapolis Colts. Kincaid was full-go for the playoffs, though, and had four catches for 58 yards on five targets combined in the wild-card and divisional rounds. He had a postseason-high four targets against the Chiefs. It's safe to say Kincaid, who was TE5 in 2024 drafts, will be available later in drafts this year after finishing the season as TE26. |

Bills | Buffalo comes up short in AFC title game Sun Jan 26, 09:55 PM
The Buffalo Bills suffered a 32-29 loss against the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game. QB Josh Allen completed 22-of-34 passes for 237 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions, while running 11 times for 39 yards. RB James Cook rushed 13 times for 85 yards and two scores, while absorbing all of his three targets for 49 yards. WR Mack Hollins led the way with three receptions for 73 yards and a touchdown, while WR Khalil Shakir was good for six receptions for 46 yards on seven targets. WR Amari Cooper resurfaced for four receptions for 33 yards, while TE Dalton Kincaid had two catches for 13 yards, and WR Curtis Samuel had a 4-yard touchdown on his only offensive touch. S Cole Bishop had game highs with 10 total stops and nine solo tackles, while LB Matt Milano had nine total stops, eight solo tackles, a sack, a tackle for loss and a quarterback hit.
| Footballguys view: As ESPN.com's Alaina Getzenberg framed it, "A season of surpassed expectations and new heights ultimately had the same familiar ending as a sloppy first half set up a tight final two quarters, and it just wasn't quite enough." The mistake-riddled game continued into the final drive when the Bills offense had an opportunity to put together a game-winning drive. The Bills seemed unprepared for a blitz on fourth-and-5 with two minutes remaining in the game. Kincaid did not come down with a late heave thrown under duress by Allen. The Bills have now lost all four postseason meetings against the Mahomes-led Chiefs team since 2020 and have lost eight straight road playoff games. Allen-led Bills teams are 0-2 in the AFC Championship. Buffalo will now go into the offseason with new questions about what they need to do to get past Kansas City in the postseason. |

Bills | Buffalo powers into title game Sun Jan 19, 09:46 PM
Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen completed 16 of his 22 passes for 127 yards, and he rushed 10 times for 20 yards and two touchdowns in a 27-25 win over the Baltimore Ravens in the Divisional Round. RB James Cook rushed 17 times for 67 yards, and RB Ray Davis added four carries for 29 yards and a score. WR Khalil Shakir had six catches for a team-high 67 yards, and TE Dalton Kincaid had one catch for 11 yards. WR Keon Coleman gained five yards on his line reception, and WR Amari Cooper was held without a catch. S Damar Hamlin registered a team-high eight tackles, including two tackles for loss and a sack.
| Footballguys view: The Bills defense forced three turnovers. Buffalo intercepted Ravens QB Lamar Jackson once, forced a fumble on Jackson, and forced a fumble on TE Mark Andrews. In addition to Allen's TD runs, Davis ran for his first career postseason TD. As effective as Allen was at converting first downs and running the clock, NFL.com's Eric Edholm notes their two long drives in the fourth quarter only netted six points. On fourth-and-goal from the Baltimore 2-yard line with 3-plus minutes left, Bills head coach Sean McDermott opted to kick a field goal, keeping it a one-possession game. Both approaches almost cost the Bills a spot in the AFC Championship Game. Still, Buffalo will travel to face the Kansas City Chiefs on Jan. 26. with a trip to Super Bowl LIX on the line. This marks the fourth time in the last five seasons that the Bills and Chiefs will meet in the playoffs. |
