Josh Allen kisses Hailee Steinfeld as he wins NFLS 2025 Most Valuable Player Award

Josh Allen gathers accolades – and everyone with engaged Hailee Steinfeld by his side!

Buffalo Bills -Quarterback, 28, was named NFL’s 2025 most valuable player on the NFLs on Thursday, February 6, the League’s Top Award. After his name was called, Allen turned to Steinfeld, also 28, for a kiss before he went up to accept the trophy.

Allen’s fiancé was the “last but not least” in her speech and said to her, “You’ve been my rock, you’re my best friend. I wouldn’t stand on stage if it wasn’t for you.”

Allen also thanked his colleagues in his speech – Ravens QB Lamar Jackson, Eagles RB Saquon Barkley, Bengals QB Joe Burrow and Lions QB Jared Goff – along with the whole Bills organization before honoring his parents in the audience with tears in their eyes.

“I would like to thank Joel and Lavonne, my parents, who in my 20-Plus years playing football, go down to Pop Warner, I know they missed maybe 15 games throughout their lives,” Allen said.

“They are so dedicated to support me and my favorite teammates who are my sister and my brother and my little sister: Nicala, Jason, Makenna. Thanks for all support, all the time money, energy wasted growing up and going from meeting to Play for exercise every day.

Allen had thrown 28 touchdowns this season and 3,731 yards while led Buffalo to a 13-4 season. He and the bills had hoped to finally win the AFC championship and get back to the Super Bowl for the first time since 1994, but once again couldn’t beat Kansas City Chiefs during the postal season.

Allen jumped the question to Steinfeld in November, and the two announced their commitment to a common Instagram post, a rarity for the typically private couple. In the post, they shared a romantic photo of Allen down on one knee in front of Steinfeld, with both surrounded by a bow with pink and red roses next to a body of water.
