2017
[edit]The New York Jets selected Maye in the second round (39th overall) of the 2017 NFL Draft.[13] He was the second safety selected by the Jets after they selected LSU's Jamal Adams sixth overall.[14][15][16]
On May 23, 2017, the Jets signed Maye to a four-year, $6.55 million contract with $3.66 million guaranteed and a signing bonus of $2.90 million.[17][18]
He entered training camp competing against Jamal Adams and Calvin Pryor to be one of the starting safeties.[19] Head coach Todd Bowles named Maye the starting free safety to begin the regular season, alongside strong safety Jamal Adams.[20]
He made his professional regular season debut and first career start in the New York Jets season-opener at the Buffalo Bills and recorded seven combined tackles during a 21–12 loss.[21] In Week 5, Maye recorded four combined tackles, deflected a pass, and made his first career interception off a pass by quarterback Kevin Hogan in the Jets' 17–14 victory at the Cleveland Browns.[22] On October 22, 2017, he collected a season-high seven combined tackles, broke up a pass, and intercepted a pass attempt by Jay Cutler in the Jets' 31–28 loss at the Miami Dolphins.[23] In Week 15, Maye made a season-high tying seven combined tackles during a 31–19 loss at the New Orleans Saints.[24] Maye finished his rookie season in 2017 with 79 combined tackles (57 solo), two pass deflections, and two interceptions in 16 starts.[25]
2018
[edit]Maye missed the first three games of 2018 due to a foot injury, but returned in Week 4 as the Jets starting free safety.[26][27] During Week 5 against the Denver Broncos, Maye intercepted Case Keenum and returned it 104 yards but was a yard shy of scoring a touchdown. Time expired anyhow and the Jets won 34–16. The interception set the NFL record for longest interception return without scoring a touchdown.[28][29] He then suffered a broken thumb the following week against the Indianapolis Colts and missed the next game. He returned in Week 8, playing in the next three games before suffering a shoulder injury in Week 10 against the Bills. He was placed on injured reserve on December 1, 2018, ending an injury-plagued season for Maye.[30][31]

This was Maye's first interception of the season.[33] In the 2019 season, Maye started in all 16 games. He finished with 65 total tackles, one interception, and seven passes defended.[34]

He finished with two sacks, 88 total tackles, two interceptions, 11 passes defended, and two forced fumbles.[38]

On September 1, 2022, Maye was arrested for aggravated assault with a firearm and was booked into Jefferson Parish Correctional Center in Louisiana.

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
