Josh Allen is the MVP of Christmas!
The Buffalo Bills quarterback, 28, was gifted a 14-karat white gold chain emblazoned with “MVP” on it by his teammates.
Bills offensive tackle Dion Dawkins revealed the gift from the team’s offensive line via Instagram on Wednesday, December 25.
The luxurious chain is shaped like a football jersey and also features Allen’s number, 17, on it. The back of the pendant lists the names of Allen’s offensive line teammates.

In a video posted to his Instagram Stories, Dawkins shared the moment he presented Allen with the gift. “That’s so sick,” Allen said when he received it.
Jeweler Gabriel Jacobs of Rafaello and Co., who designed the gift, told TMZ that the unique piece is comprised of 14 karats of white gold and has 27 carats of diamonds in it, including 12 in the necklace and 15 in the pendant.
Jacobs told the outlet that Dawkins, 30, reached out to him to make the chain on December 9 and it was shipped and ready to be gifted to Allen by December 20.
Allen recently credited his new fiancée Hailee Steinfeld for his killer performance this NFL season.
“She’s been a huge part,” the Bills QB told The Associated Press on Wednesday, December 18. “The morale, the support. When I get home, she’s my biggest fan, my biggest supporter.”
Allen added, “She’s just the best.”
That sentiment was shared by Dawkins, who said that “there’s something about” the stability that Steinfeld, 28, has been able to provide Allen.
“When you’re in this world that we’re in, and a lot of people pulling at you and a lot of sources of ups and downs of a roller-coaster, and you have that one stable person that you can rely on and go home and hug and get a laugh no matter what, I think that’s dope,” Dawkins told the AP. “And that’s what I think is going on.”
Josh Allen Kept Crying Leading Up to Hailee Steinfeld Proposal
Allen proposed to Steinfeld on November 22, during the Bills’ bye week, after more than one year of dating. The couple announced their engagement a week later, with a simple post via Instagram.
“ 11•22•24 ,” Allen wrote alongside a picture from the oceanside proposal, which happened in Malibu.
The couple were first linked when they were spotted together in New York City in May 2023, shortly after Allen ended his eight-year relationship with girlfriend Brittany Williams.
In June 2023, a source exclusively told Us Weekly that Allen and Steinfeld’s courtship was “going really great,” adding, “[They] laugh a ton when they’re together [and] are always smiling.”
