Won't return versus Jacksonville Poyer (hamstring) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's wild-card game versus the Jaguars.

Impact Poyer has been a stalwart during his lengthy time spent in Buffalo, and he tallied 70 tackles and three passes defended over 10 regular-season appearances in 2025. If the Bills advance, it will be worth monitoring Poyer's availability for what has been a weak Buffalo defense this season.

Impact Poyer recorded two tackles before exiting during the first half. The 34-year-old missed the final two games of the regular season with a hamstring issue, but he was not listed with an injury designation ahead of Sunday's wild-card game.

Feels ready to play Poyer (hamstring) says that he feels ready to suit up for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.

Impact Poyer was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, so his optimistic words and feelings seem to be reflected in his on-field performances.

Impact Poyer closed out the regular season with back-to-back absences due to a hamstring injury, but Buffalo will hope to have the starting safety back in action for Sunday's wild-card round matchup on the road against Jacksonville. Cam Lewis will figure to handle an expanded role on defense versus the Jaguars in the event that Poyer can't go.

Sidelined Wednesday Poyer (hamstring) won't participate in Wednesday's walkthrough practice, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.

Impact The 34-year-old was sidelined for the Week 17 loss to the Eagles due to a hamstring issue, and Wednesday's DNP suggests he's still dealing with the injury. Poyer likely needs to upgrade to full practice Thursday or Friday to avoid carrying an injury designation in Sunday's matchup against the Jets, though he may be rested with the Patriots having already secured the AFC East title.

Won't suit up Week 17 Poyer (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Philadelphia, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.

Doesn't practice Wednesday Poyer (hamstring) was a non-participant in Wednesday's walkthrough practice.

Impact The veteran from Oregon State was deemed day-to-day with a hamstring issue following the Week 16 win over the Browns, so Wednesday's DNP comes as no surprise. Poyer has been an integral part of Buffalo's secondary this season, recording 70 total tackles and three passes defensed, including an interception, over 10 appearances. If he's sidelined for the Week 17 matchup against the Eagles, Jordan Hancock will likely operate as the Bills' top strong safety.
