"I think she likes the one...": Josh Allen’s cheeky response to questions about buying Hailee Steinfeld a bigger ring after $330M deal

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen has made history with a monumental $330 million contract extension, securing $250 million in guaranteed money — the highest guarantee ever given to an NFL player. The groundbreaking deal, reported by ESPN’s Adam Schefter, reflects Allen's exceptional performance during the 2024 season, where he earned the NFL Most Valuable Player (MVP) award and led the Bills to a franchise-tying 13 regular-season wins. This lucrative contract marks a pivotal moment in Allen’s career, reinforcing his status as one of the league’s elite quarterbacks.Following the announcement, Josh Allen spoke with the media during a livestream with 7 News WKBW. The 28-year-old quarterback, who proposed to actress Hailee Steinfeld in November, shared insights into both his professional and personal life. When asked if any of his newfound wealth was earmarked for an upgrade to Steinfeld's engagement ring, Allen responded with humor.“A bigger ring you said?” Allen said with a laugh. “Uh, nah, I think she likes the one she’s got.”The engagement ring, which Steinfeld debuted at the NFL Honors ceremony last month, is estimated to be between 3.5 to 4 carats and valued at around $70,000 to $150,000, according to People magazine. Despite the hefty payday, Allen seems confident that Steinfeld is content with her current ring.Allen’s teammate Dion Dawkins has hinted that the couple’s wedding is scheduled for May 31, although no official confirmation has been made. Allen’s reflections on his personal life suggest a sense of balance and fulfillment. “I’m so grateful for what’s going on in my life and finding the person I want to share it with,” Allen said. “You know when you have that piece figured out, it seems like everything else comes a little bit easier.”Allen’s extension comes despite having four years left on his previous contract, highlighting the Bills’ confidence in their star quarterback. His 2024 season was one of the best of his seven-year career, with Allen throwing for 3,731 yards, 28 passing touchdowns, 12 rushing touchdowns, and just six interceptions. His leadership helped Buffalo clinch 13 wins, tying the franchise record for most victories in a regular season.Reflecting on his record-setting contract, Allen expressed gratitude for his success. “I don’t know if crazy is the word, I’m blessed,” he said. “Sometimes it is a little breathtaking, or can’t find the word to describe it... pretty lucky guy. I’m blessed beyond belief.”Allen also acknowledged the role Steinfeld has played in his journey. “I’ve said it over and over again, how much I love and appreciate my fiancée and how much she’s helped me, it’s no different than what’s going to continue to happen.”As Allen looks ahead to the 2025 season, he’s hoping to secure two rings — one with the Bills and another at the altar. "Really anybody that I run into, friend or not friend, it’s always a congrats — you’re having a heck of a year! You kinda look back at it and the only thing that’s missing is finishing our season with a win.”Also Read: Texas judge grants protective order to woman who accused Chiefs’ WR Xavier Worthy of assaultAllen’s record-setting contract and his upcoming wedding mark a defining chapter in both his career and personal life.
