Jeffrey David "Jeff" Maehl (born March 16, 1989) is an American football wide receiver who is currently a free agent. He was signed by the Houston Texans as an undrafted free agent in 2011. He played college football at Oregon.
In addition to the Texans, Maehl played for the Philadelphia Eagles.
Maehl lives in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania with his wife Britnee and their two cats, Captain Pancake and Leonardo DiCatrio. Maehl has a full sleeve on one arm and a half-sleeve tattoo on his other. Maehl has a rose matching his wife on his left forearm, with her initials and a quote, as well as a mirrored rose on his right one reading, "Truly" and "Blessed". He also has one on his right arm that says "Paradise California", his hometown, and features a row of pine trees which densely inhabit the area, and more scripture and design. The one on his left is in honor of drowned former teammate Todd Doxey. Doxey was a close friend and roommate of Maehl.
Jeff played for the Paradise High School Bobcats, where he was given the opportunity to display his skills on the field. He wore the #15 jersey in green and gold. (Paradise is but a 15-minute drive to the hometown of 2011 Super Bowl champion, and MVP, Aaron Rodgers.) Here is where his numbers clearly showed the ability to move on and play with Oregon. He played in the 2007 Lions Club District 4C-1 All Star Game along with former rival at Pleasant Valley High School, now BC Lions quarterback Jordan Rodgers.
He played college football with the University of Oregon Ducks. As a senior in 2010, Maehl caught 77 passes for 1,076 yards while helping Oregon to the 2011 BCS National Championship Game. In that game, quarterback Darron Thomas and Maehl combined to set the record for the longest pass play from scrimmage in a championship game: 81 yards. Prior to the 2011 NFL Draft, Maehl was predicted to be a late-round draft pick by draft analyst Mel Kiper Jr.
