Sidelined by illness in Week 18 Martin (illness) is inactive for Sunday's clash against the Cowboys, Zach Selby of the Commanders' official site reports.

Impact Martin was added to the injury report due to the illness early Sunday, and he's now been ruled out for the Commanders' regular-season finale. His absence is a significant one for Washington's secondary, as the Illinois product logged 100 percent of the team's defensive snaps in five of his past six games. Percy Butler or Darrick Forrest could slide into a starting role Sunday in Martin's stead.

Past shoulder injury Martin (shoulder) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Saints.

Impact Martin upgraded to full practice participation Friday after opening the week with consecutive limited sessions, suggesting that he's now recovered from his shoulder injury.

Nursing shoulder issue Martin (shoulder) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

Impact Despite the Commanders having a Week 14 bye, Martin popped up on Wednesday's injury report with a shoulder issue. He likely sustained the injury in Washington's Week 13 win over the Titans, as he played just 45 defensive snaps, his lowest mark since Week 7. Martin's practice participation Thursday and Friday will likely provide the best indication of whether he can play in Sunday's matchup against the Saints.

DECEMBER 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Records seven tackles in Week 12 Martin finished Sunday's 34-26 loss to the Cowboys with seven total tackles (two solo), including one tackle for loss.

Six tackles, forced fumble in loss Martin recorded six total tackles (two solo) while also forcing a fumble in Sunday's 28-27 loss to the Steelers.

Impact Martin finished fourth on the team with six stops against Pittsburgh, but most notably, he stripped running back Jaylen Warren in the fourth quarter when Warren was attempting to reach the end zone. The safety has now compiled 53 total tackles (34 solo), a pass defensed and a forced fumble over 10 games in 2024.

NOVEMBER 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Team-leading 11 tackles vs. Chicago Martin finished Sunday's 18-15 win over the Bears with 11 tackles (nine solo).

Impact After opening the regular season with a nine-tackle effort against the Buccaneers in Week 1, Martin failed to log more than six combined tackles in each of the Commanders next six games. The starting free safety was more heavily involved Sunday, however, as he led the Commanders with 11 tackles while playing 52 defensive snaps. Martin is up to 44 combined tackles through eight regular-season games and is two shy from matching his production across 16 regular-season outings in 2023.

Impact Martin has been dealing with a neck injury since last week, but he was able to avoid an injury designation heading into the Commanders' Week 6 bout against the Ravens.

Martin has accumulated 31 tackles (22 solo) and one pass defended through the first six games of the regular season.

Limited Wednesday Martin (neck) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

Impact Martin recorded four total tackles and defended one pass across 47 defensive snaps during the Commanders' Week 5 win over the Browns, but it appears he sustained a neck injury in the process. The second-year pro's participation Thursday and Friday will provide a better indication of his potential availability for Week 6, when the Commanders travel to Baltimore.

Practices in full Thursday Martin (elbow) was a full participant in Thursday's practice session.

Impact Martin was limited in Wednesday's practice due to an elbow injury.

SEPTEMBER 26, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Nursing new injury Martin (elbow) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

SEPTEMBER 25, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

On track to play at Cincinnati Martin (hamstring) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game at the Bengals, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

Impact Martin was able to play through the same lingering hamstring issue in Week 2, so it's not surprising that he'll be ready to go for Week 3. The 2023 second-rounder could have some IDP value this week against a pass-happy Cincinnati team.

SEPTEMBER 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Opens week limited Martin (hamstring) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

Impact Martin played through a hamstring injury in Week 2 against the Giants, and he finished the game with three tackles (two solo). He'll have two more practices to upgrade his participation ahead of Monday's game against the Bengals.

SEPTEMBER 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Cleared for Week 2 Martin (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Giants.

Impact Martin suffered a minor hamstring injury during Friday's practice but will still play against the Giants. The 2023 second-round pick played 59 of Washington's 64 defensive snaps in Week 1, recording nine tackles (eight solo).

SEPTEMBER 15, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Late addition to injury report Martin (hamstring) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Giants, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Martin appears to have sustained a hamstring injury during Friday's practice that's put his Week 2 availability in jeopardy. The second-year safety is coming off an impressive Week 1 performance, in which he recorded nine total tackles on 56 defensive snaps. However, if he's unable to go Sunday, expect Jeremy Reaves to work as Washington's top free safety.

SEPTEMBER 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Impresses Week 1 Martin logged nine total tackles (eight solo) during Sunday's 37-20 loss to the Buccaneers.

Impact The second-year safety out of Illinois was one of the few bright spots for the Commanders' defense Sunday, finishing second on the team in total tackles. In Martin's rookie year, he appeared in 16 regular-season games and recorded 46 total tackles, including 1.0 sack, and two interceptions. Expect Martin to have a more prominent role in the Commanders' secondary as his sophomore campaign progresses.
