Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen has been named the best quarterback in the NFL by one outlet.

That has not consistently been the case so it is worth noting when it happens.

Certain media outlets have not named Allen the top QB in the NFL currently, nor the best player overall, despite his 2024 NFL MVP Award.

The Draft Network ranked the top-12 quarterbacks in the NFL heading into the 2025 season and Allen landed at the No. 1 overall position.

Who was after him?
