Josh Allen, the 2024 NFL MVP, is diving headfirst into the content game, launching his own venture, Out of Pocket Studios. The Buffalo Bills star quarterback announced the media venture will have him backing entertainment, commercial, and experiential projects. Get this, he is the CEO and an executive producer on all projects.
From MVP to Media Mogul
This isn’t just a side hustle, folks. Allen himself said, “Skydance Sports has given me a platform to turn the ideas I care most about into something real.” He added, “We’re excited to share what Out of Pocket Studios has created so far, and for everyone to see what we’re building from here.” Sounds like he’s ready to make some serious noise off the field, not just on it. He’s clearly putting his stamp on this.
New Shows Already Hitting the Airwaves
And they are already building! The new studio will debut with “America’s Tailgate,” a TV special hitting CBS on Labor Day. It features music, celebrities, and is hosted by Nate Burleson. Later, “NFL Play Action,” a weekly football analysis show hosted by Kyle Brandt and Ally Love, debuts on Paramount+ on September 9. Other projects include “The Buffalo Miracle,” a story of a McDonald’s manager in Buffalo who opened the restaurant to stranded citizens during a deadly blizzard in 2022 on Christmas Eve. A comedy series conceived by Allen has also already been sold. This dude is seriously busy.
With all this new content coming, you gotta wonder about Allen’s focus. The dude is leading a whole company now, but he has to get ready for the Bills’ 2026 season opener. They are facing the Houston Texans on September 13. Can he juggle being a CEO and leading his team on the field? We are about to find out.
