JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Standout pass rusher Josh Allen and the Jacksonville Jaguars reached agreement Wednesday on a five-year, $150 million contract that includes $88 million guaranteed, a person familiar with the negotiations said.
The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the deal had not officially been signed or announced.
The deal makes Allen the third-highest-paid defensive player in the league in average salary behind San Francisco's Nick Bosa and Kansas City's Chris Jones.
The Jaguars used their franchise tag on Allen in early March while working on a long-term deal that would keep him in Jacksonville through his prime.
