Bradley Chubb signs with the Buffalo Bills
“Chubb will look like a consolation prize unless and until he’s able to stay healthy and make a difference next fall and winter,” said an analyst following the announcement of Chubb’s new contract.
On March 11, 2026, Bradley Chubb signed a three-year deal with the Buffalo Bills, valued at $43.5 million, with the potential to reach $52.5 million. This signing comes after Chubb was released by the Miami Dolphins, where he had a standout performance with a team-high 8.5 sacks in the 2025 season.
Chubb’s journey in the NFL has been marked by both achievements and challenges. Drafted fifth overall by the Denver Broncos in the 2018 NFL Draft, he quickly established himself as a formidable pass rusher. Over his career, he has accumulated 48 sacks and 303 tackles in 90 games.
However, his career has also been marred by injuries. Chubb missed the entire 2024 season due to a torn ACL injury and has faced similar setbacks with both knees during his time in the league.
Prior to joining the Dolphins in 2022, Chubb was traded from the Broncos for a first-round pick, highlighting the high expectations placed on him. His performance with Miami was promising, but the team ultimately decided to part ways with him.
As he joins the Bills, Chubb is expected to bolster their pass rush, although his impact remains uncertain. The exact deployment of Chubb in the Bills’ defense under new coordinator Jim Leonhard is unclear, and details remain unconfirmed.
With his new contract, Chubb aims to prove his worth and regain his status as a top pass rusher in the league. The Bills are counting on him to make a significant contribution to their defensive lineup.
As the offseason progresses, fans and analysts alike will be watching closely to see how Chubb adapts to his new team and whether he can stay healthy enough to make a lasting impact.
