Alcohol Addiction

Former Browns’ Safety Jordan Poyer’s Battle With Alcoholism

WHEN HONESTY BECOMES THE GOAL –

Dec. 3, 2021 – “A big part of my sobriety is to lean into the truth. To be comfortable with who I am. And I’m actually surprised by how easy it’s been to open up to people,” Poyer said. 

“I had built it up into this big thing in my mind. Even when I got sober and went to my first AA meeting back in March, I was so nervous that someone was going to recognize me that I didn’t even open my mouth. I just sat there listening the whole time, on the low”.

Poyer addressed the problem head on with his Bills’ teammates. When out having a good time with them he told them directly.
