Jets players have spoken: Marcus Maye is their team’s most valuable player.
Maye was rewarded with the Curtis Martin Team MVP award Thursday following a vote by his teammates. Maye’s name will be added to a wall at the Atlantic Health Jets Training Center that displays the names of past team MVPs.
Maye is the fourth safety to win the award. Dainard Paulson, Brian Washington, and Jamal Adams are the other three Jets safeties who’ve taken home the team MVP award.
Maye, in his first season without Adams by his side in the secondary, has taken over as the leader of the Jets defense.
Statistically, Maye has put together the best season of his career. He’s registered 71 total tackles, two sacks, 11 pass breakups, two interceptions, two forced fumbles, and one fumble recovery.
On Sunday, Maye broke up a pass to Gerald Everett on fourth down late in the game that allowed the Jets to get the ball back and run out the clock to pick up their first victory of the year
