Dontari Poe born August 18, 1990 is an American football nose tackle for the Kansas City Chiefs of the National Football League. He played college football for the University of Memphis. Originally projected a second-round draft pick, Poe impressed NFL scouts with exceptionally strong workouts at the 2012 NFL Combine. He was eventually selected by the Chiefs in the first round, eleventh overall, in the 2012 NFL Draft. Poe was expected to succeed veteran Kelly Gregg at nose tackle in Kansas City's 3–4 defense, although head coach Crennel acknowledged that "it's going to take a while for to get adjusted." On the eve of training camp, July 26, 2012, Poe agreed to terms with the Chiefs, signing a four-year deal with a fifth-year team option. Per team policy, financial terms of the deal were not disclosed, but it was reported to be worth about $11 million. Competing with Anthony Toribio and Jerrell Powe for the starting nose tackle spot left void by Gregg, Poe disappointed in training camp. "He needs to work on technique, he needs to work on understanding the system, he needs to get the calls correct all the time. He's got a ways to go," said Crennel. After spending the first three preseason games on the bench, Poe was moved into the starting lineup after Toribio injured his ankle. He established himself as a starter, and remained in the starting lineup for his entire rookie season, starting all 16 regular season games at nose tackle and being a three-down player for most of the season. He recorded 38 tackles, including 28 unassisted. Even though he did not record a quarterback sack, he was credited for his contributions as an inside rusher in obvious passing situations. Particularly, his efforts against the Pittsburgh Steelers and Cincinnati Bengals were praised. In week 15, he registered a season-best five tackles in a loss against Oakland. According to The Sporting News, Poe as a rookie appeared to be more advanced in grasping the Chiefs’ two-gap system than either Dorsey or Jackson as a rookie. “I’m a much better player than when I first got here,” Poe told the publication. “I came here a little afraid, but now I kind of know what’s going on.” The Kansas City Star named Poe the Chiefs' Rookie of the Year. After not recording a quarterback sack in his rookie season, Poe tallied 3.5 sacks over the first two games of the 2013 NFL season. Increasingly drawing double-teams afterwards, he only added one sack over the rest of the season. Twelve games into his sophomore season, Poe lined up on 804 defensive snaps—85 more than any other defensive tackle in the NFL. After the 2013 season concluded, Poe was selected to participate in the annual Pro Bowl. During the 2014 year, Poe started all 16 games with 6 sacks and a pass defended on 46 tackles. He was selected to the Pro Bowl for a second year in a row.
