Maye recorded nine tackles (five solo) and one pass breakup in the Dolphins' win over the Patriots on Sunday. Starting in place of an injured Jordan Poyer (shin), Maye played 100 percent of the defensive snaps versus New England. Prior to Week 5, Maye had played a total of 56 defensive snaps and another 43 on special teams. The veteran safety has 18 tackles (eight solo) and the lone pass breakup through five contests.
Maye (shoulder) signed a contract with the Dolphins on Monday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. After spending five years in New York with the Jets, Maye suited up for 12 games with the Saints over the previous two seasons. His relatively low game total was due to the fact that he dealt with a lingering shoulder injury, but his addition to Miami's roster indicates his health is back up to par. The veteran free safety will look to make an impression going forward and earn a depth role in the Fins' secondary.
The Saints intend to release Maye (shoulder) at the start of the new league year, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports. Maye has struggled with injuries for the last three seasons -- two of which came with New Orleans -- during which he's combined to play in only 23 games. The move could save the Saints up to $7.2 million in cap space. Meanwhile, Maye will likely have to settle for a short-term deal in the hopes of proving he can stay on the field.
