New York Jets: Marcus Maye on pace to return Week 1

When the New York Jets drafted Jamal Adams back in 2017, there was plenty of reason for fans to be optimistic, but it was his pairing with second-round pick Marcus Maye that truly made this one of the most tantalizing duos in the NFL.

Despite team-wide struggles in their rookie campaign, Adams and Maye proved to be a brilliant combination, and with a deeper defense around them, many expected them to eventually become the best safety combination in the league.

Unfortunately, Marcus Maye has struggled to remain healthy since then, missing plenty of game-time in 2018, so when he had shoulder surgery this offseason, it had many worried about his health going forward.
