Bucs RB Doug Martin is currently tipping the scales at 210 pounds, down from 225, according to Pewter Report's Scott Smith. We love hearing about RBs dropping weight because it tends to improve their speed and quickness. “Doug looks like his old self,” Bucs DT Akeem Spence said. “He’s making all the cuts. He’s explosive and fast coming out of the backfield now, and he’s catching the ball real well. He did a good job this offseason of getting back to his old self. I think he’s going to have a big year.” The buzz on Martin has been positive all offseason. Still only 26, there's plenty of bounce-back appeal here. Martin is well worth a shot at his 8th-round price tag.
The Raiders have released RB Doug Martin. If you needed confirmation that rookie Josh Jacobs will dominate early-down work in Oakland's backfield this season, here it is. The only question left is how much pass-catching work Jacobs will cede to RB Jalen Richard.
The Raiders have re-signed RB Doug Martin. The move is clearly a direct reaction to Isaiah Crowell's Achilles tear. Martin averaged a respectable 4.2 yards per carry on 172 totes for Oakland last year but ranked just 30th out of 47 RBs with 100+ carries in Pro Football Focus' Elusive Rating. Martin is veteran insurance in case rookie Josh Jacobs stumbles.
Raiders RB Doug Martin (knee) is active for today’s game against the Steelers. Newly signed RB C.J. Anderson is a healthy scratch. Martin should continue to serve as Oakland’s lead back but is just a RB3 vs. Pittsburgh’s tough run defense.
The Raiders expect RB Doug Martin (knee) to play through his questionable tag in today's game against the Steelers, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Martin's not an attractive play, but he has at least averaged 57.7 rushing yards and 74.5 total yards over the past 6 weeks since taking over the job.
Raiders RB Doug Martin (knee) is not listed on the final Week 14 injury report after a full week of practice. He’s a low-end RB3 option vs. a tough Steelers run defense.
