New York Jets safety Marcus Maye will return for at least this upcoming season after the Jets slapped the franchise tag on him, guaranteeing he will make $10.5 million this season, if the two sides can't come to terms on a long term deal.
Both sides have been working on an extension, but General Manager Joe Douglas slapped the tag on Maye since the deadline to franchise players is 4 p.m. Tuesday.
The tag comes just a week after Maye's agent Erik Burkhardt slammed the Jets for not getting his client a new deal, claiming Gang Green "refuse(s) to take care of their best player, captain and team voted-MVP," according to ESPN.
