Buffalo Bills safety Jordan Poyer opened up about his past alcohol use to celebrate the one-year anniversary of his sobriety.
In a post on Instagram on Saturday, Poyer wrote that he "decided to quit drinking" on March 13, 2020, "because I was an alcoholic."
Poyer noted there was one point when he "drank every damn day" for a period of five weeks following the Bills' playoff loss to the Houston Texans in the AFC Wild Card Game in January 2020.
The turning point, Poyer wrote, was taking three trips to Alcoholics Anonymous meetings after talking to his mother.
