Jordan Poyer has signed a two-year deal with the Buffalo Bills. Poyer is also a graduate of Astoria High School.

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — Safety Jordan Poyer has elected to stay put by reaching a two-year agreement to re-sign with the Buffalo Bills on Wednesday after briefly testing free agency.

The 31-year-old Poyer has 10 years of NFL experience, and blossomed as a player upon joining the Bills in free agency in March 2017, after spending his previous three-plus seasons in Cleveland.

He’s a two-time second-team All-Pro, and Poyer’s 22 interceptions since 2017 rank fifth in the NFL. He is also the league’s only player to be credited with 500 or more tackles, have 20 interceptions and 10 sacks over that span.

Poyer is coming off a season in which he showed his resilience and perseverance despite being unhappy with the team’s failure to extend the final year of his contract. He played through a variety of injuries, including finishing the season with torn knee cartilage.

In October, Poyer agreed to make the 14-hour drive to play in Buffalo’s 24-20 win at Kansas City after he was prevented from flying because of the aftereffects of a collapsed lung.

Despite missing four games to injury, Poyer still finished the season leading the Bills with four interceptions and was sixth with 63 tackles. He also served as a mainstay of a young and patchwork secondary that lost safety Micah Hyde to a season-ending neck injury in September and spent the first three months minus starting cornerback Tre’Davious White, who was recovering from a torn knee ligament.

The Bills’ defense was second in the NFL in fewest points allowed and sixth in fewest yards allowed.
