The Buffalo Bills and kicker Tyler Bass have agreed to a revised contract that includes $1 million in guaranteed money, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.
Under the terms of the new agreement, Bass has the opportunity to earn up to $3.5 million in 2026. The contract restructuring follows a 2025 season that Bass missed entirely due to injury. While the move results in an immediate pay cut, the deal is structured with incentives and an escalator that allow Bass to earn back the value of the contract through performance milestones.
The Buffalo Bills prioritized adjusting the kicker's deal after his year-long absence, providing the team with additional financial flexibility while keeping the veteran specialist on the roster. Bass has been the primary kicker for the franchise since 2020, and this revised deal secures his path back to the field for the upcoming season as he recovers from his previous injury setbacks.
