Marcus Maye
S - Miami Dolphins
Week 13 Outlook
Availability
Marcus Maye has signed with the Miami Dolphins after being released from the Saints in late February.
Fantasy Impact
The former second-round pick is now on his third team since being drafted 39th overall in the 2017 NFL Draft. Maye has surpassed 10 games played in a season only three times in his seven-year career. If he is able to stay healthy, Maye could carve out a good role in the Miami secondary.
The Saints informed Marcus Maye that he will be released at the start of the league year.
Fantasy Impact
Maye dealt with injuries last season, which included finishing the year on IR with a shoulder injury. New Orleans will open up $7.2 million in cap space with his release.
Saints S Marcus Maye has been suspended for three games without pay for violating the league’s Policy on Substances of Abuse.
Fantasy Impact
Maye will miss games against Green Bay, Tampa Bay, and New England over the next three weeks. The 30-year-old will be eligible to return in Week 6 against the Texans.
Saints Safety Marcus Maye was arrested Thursday morning for aggravated assault with a firearm, reports Nick Underhill from NOF Network.
Fantasy Impact
The news obviously not only puts Maye's Week 1 status in jeopardy, but also his 2022 season. However, it's impossible to make any clear predictions until more information regarding the situation gets released.
Safety Marcus Maye is expected to ink in a 3-year, $28.5 million deal with the New Orleans Saints.
Fantasy Impact
Maye has been one of the lone bright spots in New York for the last few years, and he has earned himself a nice contract to play for the Saints. While it's still unknown if his achilles injury will have long-term effects on his play, it is safe to say he should provide a nice boost for a defense that just lost their best safety.
