Martin played for LSU in college and the 24-year old safety began his NFL career with the Seattle Seahawks as an undrafted rookie in 2015. After participating during the preseason, Martin was waived and claimed by the New York Jets in September 2015.
He played in 11 games for the Jets between 2015-2016. During those 11 games, he only had two tackles. Earlier on during the 2017 preseason, the Indianapolis Colts acquired him by trading away long snapper Thomas Hennessey. He was waived on September 3, 2017 and signed to the practice squad, eventually being released on the 12th of September.
If Martin does make it onto the active roster, it will most likely be as a member of the special teams. He does not have much experience as a defender and the Ravens have considerable depth at the position.
