Max Brady is a fictional character on the soap opera Days of Our Lives, and was portrayed by Darin Brooks from June 21, 2005, to July 7, 2009, and March 15 and 16, 2010. In November 2012, Darin Brooks hinted on social media that he was possibly contemplating reprising the role of Max Brady in the near future; however, he ultimately did not return.

Max was given away by his father Trent Becker at an early age. He was taken under the protective wing of then Frankie Donner, now Frankie Brady. Frankie and Max made their way to Salem. They were taken in by kindhearted Steven Johnson and his wife Kayla Brady Johnson. Frankie and Max were legally adopted by Kayla's parents Shawn Brady and Caroline Brady. The boys gained brothers Roman Brady and Bo Brady and sisters Kimberly Brady and Kayla Brady. Shortly thereafter, both boys left town.

In mid-2005, more than a decade later, Jennifer Horton Deveraux ran into Max at the racetrack and renewed ties with both him and Frankie. Once back in Salem, Max was immediately drawn to Chelsea, his adoptive niece. When Chelsea was blamed for the accidental death of Zack Brady, Max stood by her side and kept her dark secret for as long as possible. Max eventually broke up with Chelsea, feeling she was too immature for him. He briefly dated fellow racer car driver Stephanie Johnson, who also happened to be his adoptive niece.

Max then briefly dated his nephew Shawn-Douglas' soon-to-be-ex-wife Mimi. During that same time, Max employed Abby Deveraux at his garage. Since his brother Frankie was engaged to Abby's mother Jennifer at the time, she was expected to be his future step-niece. When Mimi experienced a variety of personal and family difficulties, he tried to stand by her, but ultimately confided in Abby that he was finding it difficult and that he didn't know what to do with his life. Abby admitted that she was jealous of his relationship with Mimi, and that she had had a crush on him for a long time. When Mimi left town soon thereafter, Max and Abby dated until Abby left Salem as well.
