Josh Allen’s Net worth: How rich is Jaguars star linebacker?

Josh Allen is an American football player, who plays as a pass rusher for the Jacksonville Jaguars in the National Football League. His journey in the NFL began in 2019 after being selected by the Jaguars as the seventh overall pick. Since his rookie season in the league, he has been honored with many accolades. 

Growing up, Allen never thought of playing football let alone going into the NFL until his uncle convinced him to try out for his high school football team. He was rather a basketball player. After being selected for the football team, he couldn’t make a single snap in his freshman year but became an all-state receiver with 1,150 yards and 11 touchdowns by his junior year. Later in high school, he decided to return to New Jersey where he changed his position from receiver to defensive end which affected his recruiting opportunities.

Eventually, he landed at Kentucky where he graduated as an all-time sack leader with 31.5 sacks. Since entering the NFL, he has earned two Pro Bowl nods. Moving forward, the Jaguars have placed a non-exclusive franchise tag on Allen ahead of the 2024 NFL season, giving the franchise adequate time to figure out a long-term deal with the star linebacker. This brings us to the question, what is Josh Allen’s net worth? Here is everything you need to know about the Jaguars star linebacker’s wealth. 

Josh Allen’s Net Worth

The Jaguars’ star linebacker, Josh Allen’s net worth is based upon his contract details, which he signed with the Jaguars. As of 2024, the Jaguars have placed the franchise tag on him which means he will earn around $24 million as salary this year. This reflects his current earnings and financial standings as an NFL player. 

Entering the league, Allen made a big splash when he became the first player in the history of the Jaguars to be named Pro Bowl in his rookie season. He logged 10.5 sacks in his rookie season and hasn’t been able to surpass that. As being one of the cornerstones of the Jaguars’ defense, it was rather a formality by the franchise to exercise the linebacker’s fifth-year option. If they failed to come up with a satisfactory contract deal before July 15, 2024, Allen would play on the tag throughout the season.
