The Buffalo Bills fell short of Super Bowl LIX, but Josh Allen is still being recognized for his efforts. Seven years into his professional career, Allen has been named the 2024 AP NFL Most Valuable Player.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Josh Allen edged two-time winner Lamar Jackson for the AP NFL Most Valuable Player award in the closest race since Matt Ryan beat out Tom Brady in 2016. Allen, who led Buffalo to a fifth straight AFC East title, got 27 first-place votes to Jackson’s 23 and finished with 383 points. He received 22 second-place votes and one third.

Josh Allen is racking up accolades — and all with fiancée Hailee Steinfeld by his side! The Buffalo Bills quarterback, 28, was named the NFL's 2025 Most Valuable Player at the NFL Honors on Thursday, Feb. 6, the league's top award. After his name was called, Allen turned to Steinfeld, also 28, for a kiss before walking up to accept the trophy.
