Marcus Maye is leaving the Jets for the Saints.
The free agent safety agreed to a three-year, $28.5 million deal with New Orleans on Tuesday night, per NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero. The pact includes $15 million guaranteed.
The Jets had not ruled out re-signing Maye as of Tuesday afternoon, per The Athletic’s Connor Hughes, but the Saints were willing to pay a price beyond what New York was willing to touch.
