He played junior hockey with the Edmonton Oil Kings and was drafted by the Coyotes in the fifth-round, 133rd overall, of the 2014 NHL Entry Draft. He was signed to a three-year, entry-level contract with the Arizona Coyotes during the 2015–16 season, on December 27, 2015.[1]

Approaching his seventh season within the Coyotes organization, Mayo began the 2021–22 season familiarly assigned to AHL affiliate, the Tucson Roadrunners, in which he was selected as team captain as the longest tenured player in his sixth year with the club.[2] With the season underway Mayo played just two games with the Roadrunners before he was recalled by the Coyotes on October 18, 2021.[3] He made his long-awaited NHL debut with the Coyotes, becoming the first Coyote defenseman to score in his debut since Tony DeAngelo in 2016, in a 5–1 defeat to the Edmonton Oilers on October 21, 2021.[4]

On February 25, 2022, Mayo was signed by the Coyotes to a three-year, $2.85 million contract extension.[5]

During the 2022–23 season, while assigned to the Roadrunners, Mayo was traded by the Coyotes to the Vegas Golden Knights in exchange for a 2023 fifth-round pick and the contract of Shea Weber.[6]
