Bradley Chubb signs with the Buffalo Bills
“The deal could be worth up to $52.5 million with $29 million in guarantees,” reported Adam Schefter, highlighting the significant financial commitment the Buffalo Bills have made in acquiring the talented linebacker.
Chubb has signed a three-year deal with the Bills, a move that comes after a successful season with the Miami Dolphins where he played all 17 games and recorded 8.5 sacks. This contract not only reflects the Bills’ confidence in Chubb’s abilities but also marks a pivotal moment in his career as he transitions from a division rival to a key player for Buffalo.
Originally drafted fifth overall by the Denver Broncos in the 2018 NFL Draft, Chubb has had a notable career, accumulating a total of 48 career sacks, 303 tackles, and 15 forced fumbles. His journey has not been without challenges; he missed the entire 2024 season due to a torn ACL injury but rebounded strongly in 2025.
Chubb’s experience and leadership were recognized in Miami, where he served as a team captain and won the local media’s ‘Good Guy’ award for his professionalism and consistent availability to the press. This reputation will likely serve him well in Buffalo, where he is expected to make an immediate impact.
Chubb turns 30 years old in June 2026, and as he enters this new chapter with the Bills, he brings with him a wealth of experience and a determination to contribute to the team’s success. His previous stint with the Dolphins began when he was traded from the Broncos ahead of the 2022 trade deadline, marking a significant shift in his career trajectory.
As Chubb joins the Bills, the team is looking to bolster its defense and make a deeper playoff run. The expectations are high, and fans are eager to see how Chubb will fit into the defensive scheme under the Bills’ coaching staff.
Details remain unconfirmed regarding any additional incentives or performance bonuses that may be included in Chubb’s new contract. However, the initial terms indicate a strong commitment from the Bills to invest in his talents.
With the NFL season approaching, all eyes will be on Chubb as he prepares to take the field in a new uniform, aiming to continue his career’s upward trajectory and contribute to the Bills’ aspirations for championship success.
