Maye (ankle) posted 42 tackles (19 solo) and one interception among his three passes defensed in 15 regular-season appearances split between the Dolphins and Chargers. Maye played 11 games with Miami before being waived and subsequently claimed by the Chargers. He proceeded to get into four games with LA before suffering a season-ending ankle injury and finishing the season on IR. The veteran safety is an unrestricted free agent, so he'll first need to recover before he can sign with a team in the offseason.

Marcus Maye Latest News
UFA after 42-tackle season
Maye (ankle) posted 42 tackles (19 solo) and one interception among his three passes defensed in 15 regular-season appearances split between the Dolphins and Chargers. Maye played 11 games with Miami before being waived and subsequently claimed by the Chargers. He proceeded to get into four games with LA before suffering a season-ending ankle injury and finishing the season on IR. The veteran safety is an unrestricted free agent, so he'll first need to recover before he can sign with a team in the offseason.
Placed on IR
Maye (ankle) was placed on IR by the Chargers on Monday. Maye suffered an ankle injury in this past Thursday's win against the Broncos and was unable to return to the outing. The veteran safety will now be out through the end of the regular season, but he could see a return pending a possible Chargers playoff appearance. He's recorded 12 tackles (6.0 solo) and two defended passes, including one interception across four games after signing with Los Angeles prior to Week 13.
Questionable to return Thursday
Maye (ankle) is questionable to return to Thursday night's game against the Broncos. The safety made two tackles (one solo) before exiting. With starter Elijah Molden (knee) already out, Derwin James, Tony Jefferson and Kendall Williamson are the only remaining available safeties for the Chargers.
Snags interception in team debut
Maye recorded three total tackles (one solo), an interception and a pass defensed in Sunday's 17-13 win over the Falcons. Maye was claimed by the Chargers on Wednesday and he was able to make a major impact in his team debut, picking off Kirk Cousins in the fourth quarter. The safety played 19 of the team's 76 defensive snaps in the contest and will likely operate in a similar role moving forward with Los Angeles.
Claimed by Bolts
The Chargers claimed Maye off waivers Wednesday. Maye was waived by Miami on Tuesday despite appearing in all 11 regular-season games and logging 30 tackles (13 solo) and one pass defense. Maye's addition to the Chargers' 53-man roster will provide much-needed depth in the secondary after Eli Apple (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve in a corresponding move Wednesday.
Getting waived
Miami waived Maye on Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. Maye has played in all 11 of the Dolphins' games so far this season, but he's now on track for free agency ahead of Week 13. He could be a candidate for Miami's practice squad if he's not claimed by another team during the current waiver period.
Logs nine tackles in start
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.
Back in AFC East
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.
Cut loose by Saints
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.
