Out due to concussion protocol Martinez (concussion) is out for Sunday's game against New York City FC.

Impact Martinez was forced off earlier this week in the Leagues Cup due to an apparent head injury, so it's not surprising to see him being ruled out due to a concussion. The absence of the defender won't have much fantasy impact, as he's been limited to just seven appearances (four starts) and 458 minutes of play in the current MLS campaign.

Forced off with head injury Martinez was forced off with a head injury in Thursday's 2-0 Leagues Cup loss to Santos Laguna, according to Joe Tansey of Union Soccer Blog.

Impact Martinez has made four starts among seven appearances for Philadelphia Union this season since joining from Uruguayan club Juventud in February, totaling 458 minutes without a goal or assist. Head injuries always warrant extra caution, and further clarity on his condition and any concussion protocol should emerge in the coming days.
