News

  • Tackling machine

    Martinez was a tackling machine in his first season with the Giants, racking up 151 stops, good for third in the NFL.

    Analysis: He also added three sacks, an interception, five passes defensed and two forced fumbles. He'll return as the team's top inside linebacker in 2021.

    Published: Mon, Jan 11 at 11:07am by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Active as expected

    Martinez (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Ravens, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    Analysis: Martinez was added to the injury report Friday as a limited participant due to the ankle issue, but he's ready to go for Sunday's contest. The 27-year-old leads the team with 128 tackles through 14 games and also has two sacks, two forced fumbles and one interception.

  • On track to play Sunday

    Martinez (ankle) is expected to play in Sunday's game against the Ravens, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Martinez surfaced on the injury report Friday when he was listed as a limited participant, but that appears to have been precautionary. The 26-year-old linebacker is set to start Sunday, as he'll look to add to the team-high 128 tackles he's accrued through 14 games.

  • Dealing with ankle injury

    Martinez is questionable for Sunday's game at Baltimore with an ankle injury, Zack Rosenblatt of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.

    Analysis: The 26-year-old was added to the injury report as a limited participant Friday, so he could end up being a game-time decision. Martinez has 128 total tackles, two sacks, one interception and two forced fumbles through 14 games, so his potential absence would be significant for the Giants.

  • Generates 10 stops

    Martinez made 10 tackles (five solo) in Sunday's 20-6 loss to the Browns.

    Analysis: Martinez registered double-digit tackles for the sixth time this season, and he's now up to 128 stops through 14 games. He's tied for fourth in the league in the category, sitting just nine tackles shy of league leader Zach Cunningham. Martinez will continue to be a top-notch IDP option in Week 16 against the Ravens.

  • Active as expected

    Martinez (back) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: It was reported earlier Sunday that Martinez was expected to suit up after he was limited in practice with the back injury this week, so this news confirms that notion. The Stanford product has been a strong IDP option this season, racking up 111 tackles and two sacks through 12 games. Expect Martinez to assume his usual starting role at inside linebacker for Sunday's game.

  • On track to play Sunday

    Martinez (back) is expected to play in Sunday's game versus the Cardinals, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Martinez still needs to clear some pregame hurdles and is officially considered questionable. However, the Giants expect their leading tackler to be available Sunday. Martinez continues to be a top IDP option, as he's piled up 111 tackles, two sacks, five pass breakups and an interception through 12 games.

  • Questionable for Week 14

    Martinez (back) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Martinez is the engine of the Giants' defense, having racked up 111 tackles after posting at least 144 in each of his last three seasons in Green Bay. The linebacker missed Wednesday's practice due to his back injury but has upgraded to limited sessions since then to give himself a chance to suit up Sunday.

  • Upgrades to limited practice

    Martinez (back) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Martinez didn't practice Wednesday, so it's encouraging to see him back in at least a limited capacity. Coach Joe Judge has expressed optimism about the starting linebacker's chances of suiting up against the Cardinals on Sunday, but a final decision likely won't be made until after Friday's practice.

  • Doesn't practice Wednesday

    Martinez (back) didn't practice Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    Analysis: Despite Martinez' unavailability Wednesday, coach Joe Judge said he's hopeful Martinez will be able to play Sunday against the Cardinals, Ralph Vacchiano of SNY.tv reports. While Martinez' absence would be a major blow to the surprisingly stingy Giants defense, the team has the personnel to overcome his absence, with rookie Tae Crowder likely to play a larger role at inside linebacker alongside David Mayo.

  • Leaves with back injury

    Martinez (back) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Curtis Crabtree of Sports Radio 950 KJR Seattle reports.

    Analysis: Martinez is the pillar of New York's linebacker corps, so the Seahawks could have a substantially easier time moving the ball if he's unable to return Sunday. Tae Crowder and Devante Downs will be candidates to see increased defensive snaps as long as Martinez is sidelined.

  • Secures first interception

    Martinez had 10 tackles (three solo) and one interception during Sunday's 23-20 win over Washington.

    Analysis: The 26-year-old reached double-digit tackles for the first time since Week 6 and also grabbed his first interception of the season. Martinez has 92 tackles (54 solo), two sacks, one interception, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery through nine games in 2020.

  • Ready for Week 9

    Martinez (hamstring) won't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game at Washington.

    Analysis: The veteran linebacker was limited at practice all week due to the hamstring issue, but it won't affect his availability for Sunday's contest. Martinez remains a high-value IDP option for Week 9, per usual.

    Published: Fri, Nov 6 at 11:18am by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Pops up on injury report

    Martinez (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    Analysis: Martinez didn't miss a snap in Monday's loss to the Buccaneers, so this injury must've popped up in the following days. It's encouraging that he's still practicing, but there's always uncertainty in regards to soft-tissue injuries. Devante Downs (shoulder) was also limited, so David Mayo and T.J. Brunson are the only healthy inside linebackers remaining.

  • Tallies nine tackles

    Martinez had nine tackles (six solo) and a forced fumble during Monday's loss to the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: The 26-year-old played every defensive snap and had his first forced fumble of the season as he knocked the ball loose from Ronald Jones during the first quarter. Martinez is tied for the league lead with 82 total tackles in eight games, and he also had two sacks, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery.

  • Racks up 14 tackles

    Martinez had 14 tackles (eight solo) during Sunday's 20-19 win over Washington.

    Analysis: The 26-year-old played 67 of 73 defensive snaps, and the 14 tackles mark a season high. Martinez remains a valuable IDP option with 64 total tackles (second in the NFL), two sacks and one fumble recovery through six games.

  • Tallies 13 tackles

    Martinez had 13 tackles (eight solo) during Sunday's 17-9 win over the Rams.

    Analysis: The 26-year-old racked up 13 tackles during his Giants' debut Week 1 and equaled that total Sunday against the Rams. Martinez has 43 tackles (26 solo) and two sacks through four games, a pace that would set career highs in both categories over a full season.

  • Logs 12 stops in debut

    Martinez posted 12 tackles (eight solo) in Monday's 26-16 loss to the Steelers.

    Analysis: Martinez registered at least 144 tackles in three straight seasons with the Packers before signing with the Giants this past offseason. It doesn't look like much has changed in the Big Apple for Martinez, as he led the team in tackles and played every defensive snap. He'll be tasked with shutting down RB David Montgomery in Week 2 against the Bears.

  • Avoids injury report

    Martinez (foot) is not listed on Thursday's injury report, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

    Analysis: Martinez was limited by a foot injury throughout much of training camp, but he's managed to secure a clean bill of health to begin the regular season. The 26-year-old manage at least 144 tackles in each of the last three seasons with Green Bay, so he'll enter Monday's game against the Steelers as a high-end IDP option.

  • Works into individual drills

    Martinez (foot) participated in individual drills Monday, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

    Analysis: Martinez has been bothered by this foot injury for a couple of weeks now, but it's encouraging that he was back in the mix seven days before the season opener versus Pittsburgh. His status should become clearer as the week progresses since the Giants will release an official practice report Thursday. Heading into his fifth season, Martinez has established himself as an IDP gem with at least 144 tackles in each of the last three campaigns with Green Bay.

  • Back in limited capacity

    Martinez (foot) participated in the first half of Monday's scrimmage, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

    Analysis: Martinez had missed Thursday's and Friday's scrimmages with an undisclosed issue, but he was seen on the sidelines getting his feet tended to by trainers Monday. The fact Martinez was able to participate in some fashion is certainly a positive sign, as it's too early to rule him out for Week 1. The former Packer is expected to handle a staring inside linebacker role for 2020 once healthy.

  • Sits out scrimmage

    Martinez (undisclosed) didn't participate in Friday's scrimmage, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    Analysis: Head coach Joe Judge didn't provide an update on why Martinez sat out, but there should be a better understanding soon. The former Packer has recorded 144-plus tackles in three straight seasons, and he's poised to start at inside linebacker with the Giants once he's healthy. If he's forced to miss any time, either Ryan Connelly or rookie T.J. Brunson will fill in.

  • Lands with Giants

    Martinez agreed to terms on a three-year contract with the Giants on Monday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Martinez finished near the top of the league in tackles over the past three seasons, amassing 443 total tackles while playing in all 48 regular-season contests for the Packers. According to Adam Caplan of SiriusXM Radio, it's a three-year deal worth about $30 million.

  • Leads squad in tackles

    Martinez, who posted 19 tackles between two playoff contests, recorded 155 tackles, three sacks and two pass breakups over 16 regular-season games in 2019.

    Analysis: Martinez led the Packers in regular-season tackles, ranking second in the league behind Bobby Wagner, and he followed suit in the postseason. The Stanford product's rookie contract will expire in March, and he'll be an unrestricted free agent. There's no telling if the Packers will retain him, but if they choose to let him walk, they'll need to bring in a new starter either through free agency or the draft because neither Oren Burks nor Ty Summers looks ready to assume that role.

  • Leading tackler in playoff victory

    Martinez had 10 tackles (seven solo) in Sunday's divisional-round win over the Seahawks.

    Analysis: Martinez was on the field for every defensive snap Sunday, and his 10 tackles led all players in the contest.

  • Playmaker in big victory

    Martinez had seven tackles (six solo), a sack and an interception in Sunday's victory over the Lions.

    Analysis: Martinez made plays all over the field Sunday and helped the Packers pick up a victory that gave them a first-round bye. Martinez will play a key role against whomever the Packers face in the divisional round on Jan. 12.

  • Another productive outing

    Martinez registered eight tackles during Monday's victory over Minnesota.

    Analysis: Showing little signs of either a hand or calf injury, Martinez played a big role in limiting the Vikings to a season-low seven first downs, which was actually the fewest Minnesota has totaled in a game in years. Again notching more than a handful of tackles along the way, Martinez is now up to a career-high 148 tackles on the year, and a strong performance in Sunday's season finale against a reeling Lions offense could earn the Stanford product his first career crown as the league's outright…read more

  • Cleared to play

    Martinez (hand/calf) is absent from the Packers' final injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Vikings.

    Analysis: Martinez was limited during the Packers' fist two practices this week, but he took on a full workload Saturday. Barring any setbacks, the NFL's leading tackler is in line to make his 15th start this season.

  • Limited in practice Thursday

    Martinez (hand/calf) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Martinez is nursing both hand and calf injuries, but it doesn't yet appear as though his availability for Monday's divisional tilt against the Vikings is in any danger. The 25-year-old linebacker has recorded double-digit tackles in three straight contests, and he'll look to keep that momentum up Week 16.

  • Stacks up 11 stops

    Martinez made 11 tackles (nine solo) in Sunday's 21-13 win over the Bears.

    Analysis: Martinez reclaimed the league lead with 140 tackles, barely ahead of Bobby Wagner's (ankle) 139. The 25-year-old linebacker is essentially a lock to set a new career high -- his current best is 144 -- and he'll look to achieve the feat in Week 16 against the Vikings.

  • Logs double-digit tackles in win

    Martinez made 10 tackles (five solo) and broke up a pass in Sunday's win over Washington.

    Analysis: It was Martinez's second-straight game with 10 tackles and seventh with at least that many on the season. On the other hand, it was the 25-year-old's first pass breakup of the year.

  • Leads Pack in tackles

    Martinez recorded 10 tackles (seven solo) across 59 defensive snaps in Sunday's win over the Giants.

    Analysis: Martinez now has 118 tackles on the year, with the next-highest Packer more than 50 tackles behind (Adrian Amos with 67 tackles). The 25-year-old linebacker will look to add to his total next Sunday when the Redskins head to Lambeau.

  • Records second sack of season

    Martinez made six tackles (four solo) and logged a sack in Sunday's 37-8 loss to the 49ers.

    Analysis: The sack was Martinez's first since Week 1. While he doesn't make a ton of big plays, the Stanford product more than makes up for it with huge tackle totals. He has 108 on the year and is on pace to break his career-high 144 that he's tallied in back-to-back seasons.

  • Accumulates 12 stops

    Martinez tallied 12 tackles (five solo) in Sunday's 26-11 loss to the Chargers.

    Analysis: Martinez's lack of explosiveness costed the Packers at times, as Melvin Gordon and Austin Ekeler ran wild in this contest. However, Martinez still managed his fifth double-digit tackling performance of the year and his 12th since the start of last season. The fourth-year pro leads the league with 95 total stops, so he continues to be a top-tier IDP asset.
