2024 Fantasy Outlook
Poyer spent the last seven seasons in Buffalo, and he stays in the AFC East as an anticipated full-time player for Miami. While Poyer has lost a step since earning first-team All-Pro honors in 2021, he did make the Pro Bowl in 2022 and passed the 100-tackle mark across 16 regular-season games in 2023. At a certain point, age and the workload of a twelve-year NFL career will add up, but until then Poyer should remain a viable IDP asset, especially with talent surrounding him in the Dolphins' secondary.

Plays every down Sunday
Poyer recorded six tackles (four solo) during Sunday's 20-17 win versus the Jaguars.
ANALYSIS
Poyer was nursing a thumb injury during the week leading up to Miami's season debut, but he ultimately had no limitations to start the year. If the snap share remains a constant, he could collect enough tackles over the course of the season to warrant IDP consideration.

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.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
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.
