No crystal ball is needed to see that the Russian Army is not performing up to expectations. Given that, the odds of them even trying to go into NATO-member Poland at some point in the near future are somewhere between slim and none.

Now, if the Poles supply Mig-29s to Ukraine, that’ll change the calculus...but I will go out on a limb and say that the Russians will limit their response to bombing a few Polish airbases - a wholesale invasion is pretty much a guarantee that the entirety of NATO gets involved, and our combat capabilities are rather better than those of Ukraine.
