Bills Jordan Poyer Wasn’t Cleared To Fly To KC Because Of His Rib Injury So He Drove 15 Hours And Played In The Game Anyway
How tough is Jordan Poyer?
The #Bills safety was not medically cleared to fly because of rib injury, so he drove 15 hours to Kansas City and back to play in this game.

What a beauty. Imagine that, being told you aren’t medically cleared to fly and then deciding to drive there instead to be with the team and play in the game. Poyer drove with his wife and daughter in a car service to the game, which took 15 hours. It isn’t that bad of a deal when you find out who Jordan Poyer’s wife is, but we will get to that later.
That is true commitment. Poyer showed up this morning and led the DBs out of the tunnel.

Poyer’s presence alone helps that defence, who I might add came up with the game-winning takeaway to seal the game for the Bills
Taron Johnson INT! What a game!

This right here is a huge reason why this Bills team is a special group. Players are willing to drive 15 hours to play a game. Poyer didn’t just play in the game but had some key tackles in the win over Kansas City.
Following the game, he still wasn’t cleared to fly so he drove back. That’s another 14.5 hours. But don’t feel too bad for the guy. He is married to Rachel Bush, I wouldn’t mind being stuck in a car for 14 hours with her.
Life is good for Jordan Poyer and the Buffalo Bills.
