Jordan Poyer, S
Poyer and the Dolphins have agreed on a one-year deal.
What it means: Miami needed a safety after Brandon Jones left in free agency and landed Poyer — who lives in South Florida in the offseason. He is two years removed from an All-Pro season and is motivated after being released by the Dolphins’ division rival Buffalo Bills. His coverage skills have waned with age, but he is still a capable safety on a defense that needs one alongside Jevon Holland.
What’s the risk: Poyer is entering his age-33 season and had some injuries over the past two years. That hasn’t kept him off the field, for the most part, as he played 16 games in 2023 after playing 12 in 2022. But on a one-year deal, as the Dolphins reset their defense, there’s little risk in bringing Poyer on board.
