Mayes played mostly at Left Tackle for Cincinnati, where he started 98 of his 110 Games. From 1974 to 1976, he accrued at least 10 in Approximate Value, and while he was never chosen for the Pro Bowl, in those three seasons, he could have been selected. He left the Bengals for Philadelphia after 1978, where he played one final year in the NFL.
