Kyle Allen Returns to Bills as Backup QB, Strengthening Depth Chart and Friendship with Josh Allen

The Buffalo Bills have signed former quarterback Kyle Allen to a two-year deal, with incentives that could bring his total earnings to six point one million dollars. Allen will serve as backup to his close friend Josh Allen, filling a crucial role on the depth chart.

Allens return to the Bills is significant, as he previously served as Josh Allens backup during the 2023 season and has a strong bond with him, having trained together under coach Jordan Palmer since before the 2018 draft and even quarantining together during the pandemic.

With six seasons of experience across six teams, Allen brings valuable experience to the Bills, having completed over sixty-two percent of his passes for nearly four thousand eight hundred yards, with twenty-six touchdowns and twenty-one interceptions.

The Bills will not receive any compensatory picks in the 2026 draft due to the league awarding thirty-three extras to fifteen teams. However, the teams signings and retentions, such as Jordan Palmer, Michael Hoecht, and Tre’Davious White, have offset potential late-round selections.

As the team prepares for the upcoming draft, fans are eager to see how the Bills will adjust their draft strategy, with the quarterback room now solidified under Joe Brady.
