The Miami Dolphins signed veteran free-agent safety Marcus Maye to an undisclosed deal on Monday, according to a source. Maye will return to the AFC East after being taken in the second round (39th overall) by the New York Jets in 2017 out of Florida and spending the first five years of his NFL career in New York. He spent the last two campaigns playing for the New Orleans Saints and totaling 69 solo tackles, one sack, two interceptions, four pass breakups and a forced fumble in 17 starts. The 31-year-old veteran defensive back started just seven games last year due to a shoulder injury but appears to be healthy now and will give Miami some secondary depth in 2024. In his seven years in the NFL, Maye has a total of 409 tackles (288 solo), 4.5 sacks, 12 tackles for loss, eight picks, 28 pass breakups, five forced fumbles and one fumble recovery in 77 starts.
