ANALYSIS
Poyer will stay in the AFC East after spending the previous seven seasons with the Bills before being released by Buffalo in a cap move last week. Poyer turns 33 years old next month but did make the Pro Bowl in 2022 after being named a first-team All-Pro in 2021. Last season, Poyer started 16 regular-season games and finished with 100 tackles (66 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and four pass breakups. It was his first season without an interception since 2016 with the Browns.

Hitting open market
Poyer was released by the Bills on Wednesday for salary cap reasons, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
The veteran safety had one year remaining on the two-year deal he'd inked before last season, and he was able to suit up for 16 of 17 regular-season games in 2023. Poyer's 101 tackles, his highest total since 2020, showed he still had plenty left in the tank at age 32, although he did allow a career-high 71.4 percent completion rate in primary coverage as well.

After a five-year run that saw Poyer average 103.8 tackles, 3.6 interceptions and 2.0 sacks, the 32-year-old began to wear down in 2022, missing four games due to a variety of injuries and playing fewer than 936 snaps for the first time since his Cleveland days. Given his age and career workload, it's an ominous sign, and Buffalo appeared to agree when it signed former Rams starter Taylor Rapp as insurance. Poyer will still start alongside Micah Hyde as long as he's able, but the Bills could begin scaling back the veteran duo's snaps to try and keep them fresh for the postseason.
