METAIRIE, La. -- The New Orleans Saints agreed to a three-year, $28.5 million contract with former New York Jets safety Marcus Maye on Tuesday night after losing longtime starting free safety Marcus Williams to the Baltimore Ravens earlier in the day, a source confirmed to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.

The deal includes $15 million in guarantees, a source told Fowler.

The Saints also reached an extension with veteran cornerback Bradley Roby, who was heading into the final year of his contract after New Orleans traded a third-round draft choice for him last September, per a source.

Both deals were first reported by the NFL Network.

Maye, who turned 29 on March 9, was drafted in the second round in 2017 -- three picks ahead of Williams -- and has been a full-time starter for the Jets ever since. However, he tore his Achilles in November while playing under the franchise tag. His rehab is said to be going well, but his availability for training camp is up in the air.
