Cleared for return Maye passed his physical and was cleared to return to practice Tuesday, Doug Kyed of Pro Football Focus reports.

Impact Maye was placed on the non-football injury last to start camp but was cleared after missing very little time. He will play the 2021 season on the franchise tag after he and the Jets failed to reach a long-term extension prior to the July 15 deadline. Maye has emerged as a cornerstone of the team's secondary and logged 88 tackles, 11 passes defensed and two interceptions across 16 games in 2020.

Placed on NFI list The Jets are placing Maye on the non-football injury list for the start of training camp, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

Impact This may be a product of tension between player and team, with Maye scheduled to play out 2021 under a franchise tag after negotiations on a long-term contract fell apart ahead of the July 15 deadline. The 28-year-old safety was a 16-game starter the past two seasons, and no injury has been reported so far this spring/summer. Still, it's possible this is unrelated to the contract, and merely a result of Maye suffering an injury while he was away from the team.

6 teams that could trade for Marcus Maye The Jets could trade Marcus Maye in the near future after the two failed to agree on a contract extension. A look at possible landing spots:

JULY 16, 2021 • USATODAY.COM

Doesn't reach extension agreement Maye and the Jets failed to reach a long-term contract agreement prior to Thursday's deadline for franchise-tagged players, Joey Chandler of NJ.com reports.

Impact Reports recently had surfaced that contract talks between Maye and the team had broken down, making it unlikely that a deal would be reached. He'll now play the 2022 season under the franchise tag and earn $10.6 million. It's possible that Maye holds out of training camp in an effort to be traded, though that may not be likely given that he attended the team's mandatory minicamp earlier in the offseason.

Jets, Maye unable to reach long-term deal by deadline

Unlikely to sign extension Maye and the Jets aren't expected to agree on a long-term contract before Thursday's deadline for franchise-tagged players, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Impact The team reportedly didn't respond to Maye's latest proposal, and the safety then retracted it. He's now expected to play out 2021 under a franchise tag for $10.6 million, though the Jets might explore trade possibilities if they're now feeling pessimistic about the prospect of re-signing Maye next offseason.
