Marcus Maye News
Former New Orleans Saints safety Marcus Maye (shoulder) is drawing interest from several teams in free agency and will visit with the Tennessee Titans on Monday, according to a source. Maye was released by the Saints to begin the new league year after playing in only seven games last year while picking up 37 tackles (27 solo), one sack and two interceptions. The 31-year-old has played in only 31 combined games over the last three seasons due to various injuries. The New York Jets originally took Maye in the second round of the 2017 draft out of Florida. He's going to need to prove that he's healthy for another team to take a chance on him as secondary depth. Maye has started all 77 games that he's appeared in over seven NFL seasons and has racked up 409 tackles (288 solo), 4.5 sacks, 12 tackles for loss, eight interceptions, 28 passes defended, five forced fumbles and a fumble recovery.
The New Orleans Saints informed safety Marcus Maye on Thursday that he will be released at the start of the new league year next month, according to sources. Maye has been injured each of the last three seasons, the last two with the Saints, and has played in a combined 23 games in that span, recording 99 solo tackles, two sacks, seven tackles for loss, two interceptions, six passes defensed and a forced fumble. In 2023 with the Saints, he started seven games and finished with 37 tackles (27 solo), one sack and two interceptions before succumbing to a shoulder injury. Cutting the 30-year-old former second-round pick of the New York Jets in 2017 should save the cost-cutting Saints around $7.2 million in salary cap space for 2024. Maye will just be hoping to stay healthy wherever he lands next.
New Orleans Saints safety Marcus Maye has been suspended without pay for three games for violating the league's policy on substances of abuse. The earliest Maye will be able to return will be on Oct. 15 against the Houston Texans. It's a hit for the Saints secondary and one of the best defenses in the league early in 2023. With Maye set to miss the next three games, rookie Jordan Howden figures to see increased defensive snaps as a starter at safety for New Orleans. The 30-year-old Maye picked up 13 tackles (11 solo), one sack and an interception in the first two games against the Tennessee Titans and Carolina Panthers.
