Jordan Poyer hit free agency in 2017 and signed with the Bills. In 2022, he led all safeties in passer rating allowed in coverage with 60.1. Furthermore, he had 63 total tackles, four interceptions, and one forced fumble.

Poyer's Fit With Bills

Poyer fits the Bills like a glove. He is a ballhawk at the safety position, ranking sixth in the NFL with 22 interceptions since 2017. He is also one of the best safeties in coverage in the league, as well.

The Bills, a team that features an impressive defense without question, could still add some more talent around Jordan Poyer. However, Poyer is a legitimate star and an instant impact player from day one of training camp.
