Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen has been named the 2024 NFL MVP. Allen was presented the honor at the NFL Honors ceremony on Thursday and he had some stiff competition. At the top of that list were Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson and Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley.

The Bills signal caller was awarded his first MVP trophy, edging out two-time winner Lamar Jackson of the Baltimore Ravens. Allen's fantastic season featured 40 combined passing and rushing touchdowns, while also helping Buffalo reach the AFC Championship in an instant classic against the Kansas City Chiefs.

ESPN's Dan Orlovsky picked Josh Allen for MVP but voted Lamar Jackson as a first-team All-Pro. Here's what went into his decision.
