Martin caught his lone target for eight yards and did not record a carry in Sunday's 27-3 loss to the Seahawks.

EDGE Analysis

Martin has logged no more than seven offensive snaps in three consecutive games as the 1-5 Raiders continue to struggle heading into their bye. With Oakland trailing for much of the contest against Seattle, Martin was kept to the sideline as fellow backup Jalen Richard played a role in the passing game en route to seven receptions for 48 yards on eight targets. The Raiders' backfield accounted for just 48 rushing yards on 15 attempts, though quarterback Derek Carr (arm) added 31 yards on four carries of his own.

Martin rushed for one yard on two carries and failed to secure his lone target in Sunday's 26-10 loss to the Chargers.

EDGE Analysis

Martin was generally uninvolved Week 5 as the Raiders played from behind for most of the contest, while starter Marshawn Lynch logged only nine carries of his own. Oakland failed to get anything going on the ground as they rushed for 41 yards on 13 carries as a team, though fellow backup Jalen Richard hauled in a team high six passes. Martin's usage figures to remain limited heading into a Week 6 matchup against the Seahawks.

Martin rushed for 11 yards on five carries in Sunday's 45-42 overtime win over the Browns.

EDGE Analysis

Martin averaged just 2.2 yards per carry while starter Marshawn Lynch led Oakland's backfield with 130 rushing yards on 20 carries. Martin also was overshadowed by both Lynch and Jalen Richard in the passing game, as the latter duo combined for six receptions and 65 yards on 10 targets. Martin's general lack of involvement was related to the high scoring nature of the contest as quarterback Derek Carr attempted 58 passes.

Martin rushed for 43 yards on nine carries in Sunday's 28-20 loss to the Dolphins.

EDGE Analysis

Martin posted season highs in both yardage and touches in Week 3, but starter Marshawn Lynch once again led the Raiders backfield en route to 64 yards and a score on 19 carries. Martin also was overshadowed by fellow backup Jalen Richard in the passing attack, as the latter accounted for six receptions for 59 yards on seven targets. Martin's fantasy value remains limited to deeper leagues while Lynch and Richard continue to produce at full health.

Martin rushed for 24 yards on seven carries and caught his lone target for no gain in Sunday's 20-19 loss to the Broncos.

EDGE Analysis

Martin has now logged 14 total touches through two weeks despite a limited snap count, serving as Marshawn Lynch's handcuff out of the Raiders' backfield. Martin was deployed for 17 offensive snaps compared to just eight for fellow reserve running back Jalen Richard, whose lack of usage stemmed from Oakland leading the entire game before a last-second field goal by Denver. Expect a similar role for Martin again in Week 3 against the Dolphins as Lynch remains healthy.

Martin took six carries for 24 yards in Friday's preseason game against the Packers.

EDGE Analysis

Marshawn Lynch started and logged two snaps before turning things over to Martin, who couldn't find any room to run until he ripped off a 16-yard gain early in the second quarter on his final carry. Martin's spot on the 53-man roster appears secure, but it's hard to project a significant workload in a backup role that may or may not include regular work on passing downs.Though he didn't draw any targets Friday, the 29-year-old did stay on the field for both third downs during the opening drive. Martin likely will be held out of the preseason finale to ensure he's healthy for Week 1 against the Rams.

Raiders coach Jon Gruden suggested Martin won't get much playing time in Friday's preseason game against Green Bay, Vic Tafur of The Athletic Bay Area reports.

EDGE Analysis

Gruden seems to be indirectly hinting that Martin will have a spot on the 53-man roster. The 29-year-old back took one carry for three yards in Oakland's preseason opener, but then was held out -- along with a slew of other veterans -- for Saturday's loss to the Rams. Gruden likely wants to use the third preseason game to evaluate Jalen Richard, DeAndre Washington and Chris Warren. Marshawn Lynch's status as the lead back is the only true piece of clarity in the Oakland backfield.

Martin made his Raiders debut during Friday's preseason opener against the Lions and rushed one time for three yards.

EDGE Analysis

Neither Martin or starter Marshawn Lynch saw much action Friday, which isn't much of a surprise during a preseason game in which quarterback Derek Carr saw only one drive. Although both DeAndre Washington and Chris Warren flashed in relief of them, there's been nothing to suggest that Martin's grip on the No. 2 role is in any danger at this stage.

Martin made a positive impression on Raiders offensive coordinator Greg Olson during the offseason program, Matt Kawahara of The San Francisco Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Hoping to rebound from back-to-back nightmare seasons, Martin joined hometown team in March on a one-year, $1.475 million contract without any signing bonus, per Spotrac. He may have gotten off to a good start during the offseason program, but his contract suggests Martin could still miss out on the 53-man roster if he fails to impress during training camp and the preseason. Jalen Richard, DeAndre Washington and undrafted rookie Chris Warren are also competing for backup roles behind incumbent starter Marshawn Lynch.

The Raiders signed Martin to a contract Thursday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

In his two full 16-game slates, Martin racked up 1,400 rushing yards both times, 743 combined receiving yards and 19 total touchdowns. However, the other four years with the Bucs were rife with injuries, ineffectiveness and suspensions, setting up his release from the team on Feb. 20. With his next destination determined, Martin can focus on a bounce back, but it may be difficult in a backfield populated by Marshawn Lynch, DeAndre Washington and Jalen Richard.
