College career
Football

In 2012, Poyer had 51 tackles. He again led the Pac-12 in interceptions, with seven. That season, he was named to the All-Pac-12 first-team and was also a consensus All-American.[3][5][6]
Baseball
Poyer did not play college baseball in his first two years at Oregon State. In 2010, he played collegiate summer baseball for the Corvallis Knights and decided to join the 2011 Oregon State Beavers baseball team in the spring. However, by April, he found the workload to be too much and decided to quit the team. He described it as "definitely one of the hardest decisions [he had] ever had to make."[7] All told, he appeared in seven games for the Beavers and had three hits and two walks in fourteen plate appearances.[8]
He made his professional regular season debut in the Philadelphia Eagles' season-opener at the Washington Redskins and recorded three combined tackles in their 33–27 victory. He made his first career tackle with teammate Nate Allen on tight end Fred Davis after Davis caught a ten-yard pass in the third quarter.[16] Poyer was relegated to special teams after he was surpassed on the depth chart by Shaun Prater and Roc Carmichael.[17] On October 19, 2013, the Philadelphia Eagles released Poyer after he was a healthy scratch in their last two games (Weeks 5–6).[18]
Cleveland Browns
2013
On October 21, 2013, the Cleveland Browns claimed Poyer off of waivers.[19] Upon arrival, head coach Rob Chudzinski named Poyer the backup strong safety behind T. J. Ward after Josh Aubrey was placed on injured reserve due to injuries to his ankle and knee.[20]
On December 8, 2013, Poyer recorded a season-high six solo tackles during a 27–26 loss at the New England Patriots in Week 14.[21] On December 30, 2013, the Cleveland Browns fired head coach Rob Chudzinski after they finished with a 4–12 record.[22] He finished his rookie season with 21 combined tackles (20 solo) in 12 games and zero starts. He also served as a backup punt returner, returning eight punts for 114 yards.[23]
On September 14, 2014, Poyer forced a fumble by running back Khiry Robinson during a 30-yard kickoff return by Robinson as time expired during a 26–24 victory against the New Orleans Saints in Week 2. It marked the first forced fumble of Poyer's career.[27] On December 14, 2014, Poyer recorded a season-high four combined tackles in the Browns' 30–0 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 15.[28] In Week 17, he made a season-high three solo tackles and assisted on a tackle during a 20–10 loss to the Baltimore Ravens.[28] He finished the season with 21 combined tackles (15 solo) in 16 games and zero starts.[29]
2015
Poyer returned as the backup free safety behind Tashaun Gipson to begin the regular season in 2015.[30] On October 18, 2015, Poyer earned his first career start in place of Gipson, who suffered an ankle injury the previous week.[31] He recorded three solo tackles, as the Browns lost 26–23 to the Denver Broncos. The following week, he made his second consecutive start and collected a season-high 11 combined tackles (five solo) during a 24–6 loss at the St. Louis Rams in Week 7.[32] He was inactive for two games (Weeks 8–9) after sustaining a shoulder injury.[33] On November 15, 2015, Poyer recorded four combined tackles, broke up a pass, and made his first career interception by Ben Roethlisberger during a 30–9 loss at the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 10. In Week 14, he recorded two solo tackles and made his first career sack on quarterback Blaine Gabbert during a 24–10 victory against the San Francisco 49ers.[34] On January 3, 2016, Poyer made his fourth career start and made four combined tackles, a season-high two pass deflections, and intercepted Ben Roethlisberger during a 28–12 loss to the Steelers.[35] Following the game, head coach Mike Pettine was officially relieved of his duties by general manager Ray Farmer after the Cleveland Browns finished the season with a 3–13 record.[36] He finished the 2015 season with 43 combined tackles (28 solo), four pass deflections, two interceptions, and a sack in 14 games and four starts.[37]
2016
Throughout training camp, Poyer competed against Rahim Moore for the job as the starting free safety after Tashaun Gipson departed in free agency.[38] Head coach Hue Jackson named Poyer the starting free safety to start the regular season, alongside Ibraheim Campbell.[39]
He started the Browns' season-opener at the Eagles and made six solo tackles in their 29–10 loss.[40] On September 25, 2016, Poyer collected a career-high 13 combined tackles (ten solo) and deflected a pass during a 30–24 loss at the Miami Dolphins in Week 3.[41] On October 16, 2016, Poyer collected three solo tackles before exiting the Browns' 28–26 loss at the Tennessee Titans due to an injury.[42] During the second quarter, Poyer was in the midst of covering a punt when he was hit by an illegal blindside block by running back Antonio Andrews. The Titans were penalized 15 yards for unnecessary roughness, and Poyer was immediately rushed to the hospital, where he was diagnosed with a lacerated kidney and a possible concussion. Andrews received criticism among players and the media due to his decision to glorify the hit by posting the video of it to his social media account.[43] On October 18, 2016, the Cleveland Browns placed Poyer on injured reserve, and he was expected to take up to four months to recover.[44] He finished the 2016 season with 39 combined tackles (29 solo) and two pass deflections in six games and six starts.[45]

Babich originally met Poyer while running defensive back field drills at the 2013 NFL Scouting Combine.[47]
