The Saints have informed veteran safety Marcus Maye they will release him at the start of the league year, Jordan Schultz of Bleacher Report reports.
Maye signed a three year, $22.5 million contract with the Saints as a free agent in 2022, but he missed as many games (17) as he played (17) in two seasons. That includes a three-game suspension.
If Maye is designated a post-June 1 cut, he will count $2.414 million in dead money and open $7.235 million in cap space.
Maye, who turns 31 next week, spent his first five seasons with the Jets after they made him a second-round pick in 2017.
In 77 career games, he has totaled 409 tackles, eight interceptions, 28 passes defensed, five forced fumbles and 4.5 sacks.
