The Los Angeles Chargers claimed safety Marcus Maye off waivers a day after he was let go by the Miami Dolphins on Tuesday. Maye, 31, signed a one-year deal with the Dolphins in June to backup the team’s starting duo of Jordan Poyer and Jevón Holland, and was thrust into starting duties in three games.

The Miami Dolphins waived veteran safety Marcus Maye on Tuesday and activated rookie safety Patrick McMorris from injured reserve. Maye, who signed with the Dolphins in June, played in 11 games with three starts for Miami this season.

An eight-year veteran who had 77 consecutive starts prior to joining the Dolphins, Maye appeared in just 11 games this season. He had 30 combined tackles, one of which was for a loss.
