The Buffalo Bills had to make some tough decisions this week and one of those moves was releasing Jordan Poyer. The former All-Pro safety played the last seven seasons in this defense alongside Micah Hyde and together they were one of the best safety duos in the league.
While there is a chance Hyde could return as he is a free agent, it appears the Bills are going to be looking for a fresh start at the position. One half of that fresh start seems to be in place as the Bills reportedly signed Taylor Rapp to a three-year deal.
Rapp joined the Bills as a free agent last offseason and was primarily a backup but did start four games for Buffalo. When considering the contract the two sides agreed to, it is clear the team views Taylor Rapp as a full-time starter for the 2024 season.
The Buffalo Bills will be looking for the other half of the safety position over the next few weeks and could be looking for a long-term solution to pair with Rapp. The hope would be to recreate what they had with Hyde and Poyer in two players who can develop and improve together.
